1044 Howard Avenue – D. Clarke Monuments

For years I’ve been meaning to take pictures of this little shop at 1044 Howard, just south of Erie. The business was owned by former city councillor Don Clarke (thanks to Chris Edwards for reminding me of that).

This little shop was around forever, really close to Windsor Grove as well, built back in the days when proximity to the cemetery was important. The business is now closed, and the sign refers callers to another local headstone maker.

The sign looks like it has seen better days and will probably one day soon bite the dust.
