A re-done McDonalds that kept the mural intact. The mural has drive in themes and cruising main street. It's worth the look even if you don't go in for a Big Mac. It is titled "Drive Though Time".

The town's website describes this mural as:
"Mainstreet Stony Plain in the 1950s was a bustling place with locals going about their daily business. Wing’s Café (on the west side of Mainstreet) was a popular spot for families to enjoy a hamburger and milkshake on a Sunday afternoon. Some prominent business owners are featured in this mural including J.H. “Decker” Kulak & Val Kotch (D & V General Store). Garnie & Ruth Yost are depicted underneath the John Deere sign. Viktor Hochdorfer, owner of Bud’s Menswear from 1954 to 2007 is pictured enjoying his lunch at Wing’s Café."
