With the recent spate of smash and grab thefts there is no way a store front could look like that today! Sad.

Even back then it wouldn't be safe.
I'm wondering if anything came down on the sides for night-time.
I sort of see things on the sides that could be rails for security gates.

There’s glass in those windows. See the reflections? Unless your talking about the open doors. In South America, the stores all have open fronts. It’s crazy wide open.
