since i posted this, i have learned that the current king kullen site used to be a Hills supermarket. I can take pics of the auto parts store/old king kullen. across the street where the old a&p was is a TJ Maxx.

i thought the sign had all capital letters in light green. but i could be wrong.

food basket was in garden city, on long island.

where in riverhead was the bohack's?

in Garden City on Long Island there used to be a store called Food Basket. It's the only one that I know of. I do not know of any others around. They closed down around 97-98.

I can definately get pics of the king kullen on 58. But that isnt on the traffic circle. On the traffic circle (the south side) is a shopping center with an auto parts store that could have definately been a supermarket. Back in the early 80's (possibly even before) it was a Harrows pool store, then...

I was actually considering writing to the paper that owns the building now. They are supposed to be moving out and Lowes will be moving in, which i am almost certain will mean the building will be demolished. I was going to write them and ask if they had any history on the building. But i didn't wan...
