It surprised me to see that this place actually has quite a history! It seems the carwash was active from at least September 2007 up until October 2019, and then tagging abruptly popped up in October 2020 and it was fenced off. You can also see that a building has been constructed next door, and when I went they were still working on it.

The back. Possible to peer through the fogged glass and get a view of the interior, but not a very good one.
