Buses Don’t Stop Here Anymore

Buses Don’t Stop Here Anymore

7 min

Buses don't stop here anymore is a chronicle on Super 8 of the closure, abandonment, and demolition of Ottawa’s Greyhound bus station. Once an important site for coming and going, an emotive epicenter, the camera observes the building’s erasure, dismantled by machines that writhe in the dust of demolition. Optical printing translates the act of observation into a requiem for a building, once so present and vital, now a ghost of the past.
