First Look at Jimi Hendrix’s Grandmother’s restaurant in Vancouver

In thisvideo, April Smith of AHA MEDIA has a first look at historic Jimi Hendrix’s Grandmother’s restaurant at 207 Union Street ( corner of Main and Union ) near Chinatown in Vancouver. It is currently owned by Vincent Fedora who has planned a CD release party of his own works and a Jimi Hendrix look a like contest. He has decorated the restaurant in Jimi Hendrix’s colors of red, orange and purple and plans to make it into a local shrine to Jimi Hendrix. This was filmed by April Smith of AHA MEDIA on a Nokia N95 mobile cameraphone. April is passionate and skilled in making Nokia films by exploring mobile media production through the camera lens of a cellphone.

Famous Chinatown Narrow Building With Underground Tunnel

This is the World’s thinnest building, the Sam Kee Building. In defiance of the city expropriating the land to widen the street, the owner used the narrow strip of land he was left with to build this narrow building.
