i mostly remember lincoln fields for the small record store they had in it. i hope he found a new location. i also think i had doctor's or dentist appointments here when i was very little, because my dad worked in the ncr building around the corner, but it's pretty vague. otherwise, it was broadly out of the way for me for most of my life, and i only remember stopping in there when i had to use the washroom, or stop to get something to drink as i was bicycling by.
this isn't surprising. everybody's known for years that it's dying. but, that strip up carling is certainly going to be different without it.
