A surprising find, this one. This is in the Finger Lakes area of upper New York State, State Highway 14 runs up the western side of Seneca Lake. The exact location here is variously described as Penn Yan, or Torrey. I'm describing it as Dresden as it's just ouside the limits of that town, to the north. There's an old unoccupied ex-Ford garage, the building of which looks to be from the 1930s. According to GSV, it was "Delrossa Ford Torrey Auto Sales" until at least 2018. There are 4 GE-Form 404 linear fluorescent fixtures on the sides of the building, a great sight. One of them even has a Powergroove tube fitted.
The building is currently being refurbished, so the future of these fixtures looks bleak.
