Progress
As one might imagine, Gone Shopping has required quite a lot of work, between doing the research, drawing the scene artwork and creating the site. All of which is being done by an extensive team of precisely one person.
That being so, rather than try to cover all available history in one go, I've chosen to deal with it in phases.
This is the progress so far:
Broad Street - 21st century, Q1 (2001-2025)
This initial quarter-century was used as proof of concept that the Gone Shopping project is achievable. Clearly, it was.
Completed 28-May-2026.
Broad Street - 20th century, Q4 (1976-2000)
Artwork has been drawn for about half the north side, with the remainder outstanding. There also remain several data gaps to be researched/confirmed.
In progress.
Broad Street - 21st century, Q2, Year 1 (2026)
Can't really add 2026 until we know what changes happened in it, if any. And we won't know that until it's (almost) over. Accordingly, the update is on hold until November/December 2026.
On hold.
