They did a nice job of sprucing up the building and the center.

Candy's Restaurants
Noticed a vacant CANDY'S along the 60 freeway in South El Monte CA.
Been vacant for quite some time.
Assume the entire chain is gone...as I can't find any others online.

Re: Early Kmart closures (PRE-1994)

They left the upper edge roofing around the perimeter the same. They even left the brackets that had spelled out ...

Re: Hemet CA
Another swing through Hemet, along Florida/Hwy 74. Truly is a flash to the past...with so many evident/former businesses: Naugles=La Cabana--the first site as you go east. Wienerschnitzl=La Cabana--the 2nd one (address is 2244). Naugles=former site is now Del Taco (towards the end of Florida/74) Chi...

Re: Bashas'
Yes, it opened as a Lucky. It became an ABCO when they bought the AZ Lucky stores in the late 80s. When ABCO went under (along with its then-owner Fleming) in the early 00s Bashas' bought the store Thanks! It is just like walking into the past! Everything is still in the same spot...produce, deli, ...

Re: Blythe CA
The RiteAid, as previously noted, is a former PayLess Drug. I assume built under KMart's ownership...as the store is huge. The stores had become basically smaller KMarts with a pharmacy! The site received the RiteAid color package. After the change, you can tell that they decided to "shrink&quo...

Re: Bashas'
The Bashas' site on Glendale @ 16th in Phoenix...had to have been a Lucky!
Sign on the street, and the interior of the store are the clues!
Yes, a facelift with painting...but the flooring and frig/freezer cases are from the Lucky era!
