Modern Car Wash Remodel Photos

Posted by Derek Leavitt on Fri, Apr 16, 2010

We recently had some photos taken of the Fashion Square Car Wash by photographer Sergio Garza - www.SergioGarza.net.

Sergio shot these for his portfolio, so we didn't interfere and advise him of what we wanted. He had free range to express his artistic point of view. We are pleased with the results. They capture the essence of the place, a busy car wash that is only closed (except for rainy days) one day a year. We also like that he took some pictures of just the landscaping.
