Jimi Hendrix Shrine

After my meal in Chinatown things got distinctly seamier as I found myself in 'Gaslight Town' - where all the junkies emerge with the night. A bit wary, I cut back through to the edge of Chinatown and came across this!

The Jimi Hendrix Shrine is the building where he grew up with his grandmother while she fried chicken and he learned his art. Not open in March, I did never the less feel a sense of completion for my Vancouver excursus as this was the one landmark I had wanted to see and hadn't.
