I feel like that merits a counter protest; that there are any Arby's anywhere at all.

Seriously.......

I wonder if they can strip the paint off the building?

The paint has already been substantially stripped off. Although, there are sections where it's still blotchy so even the cleaning off of the brick wasn't well done.

I was just about to say, they deserved it for desecrating a handsome historic building. That location never seemed even remotely busy. Hopefully a nice indie cafe opens there.

It's interesting because I was just starting to notice a month or so ago that Popeye's is constantly opening up right close to an A&W all over the place. (In Toronto)
I wonder if a new franchisee will take it over and restart it. (or corporate, maybe)
Look at places like St. Clair & Bathurst, Yonge & Eglinton (although not right next door, still pretty close)
Bloor & Bathurst (across the street from each other)
and many other locations in this city...

Frankly Popeye's is overrated - and overexpanded. The sides are particularly insipid - and coleslaw, gross.
