This one is in the same vein as Spatial Confusion #1. Again, it attempts to echo the Atget photograph I mentioned. This time, it’s the prices and "rent a car" logo visible through the other side that symbolize the spatial transformation (inside/outside) of commercial space: in a store, you're inside an outside. This is both a public place where anyone can go, and an indoor space that excludes certain kinds of visitors. The reflection of the church, obviously, is another “cathedral of commerce”-type comment.
