Would turning supermarkets into fitness clubs count? If so, I know a former Kroger that is now a Golds Gym in Macon Georgia. And a Grand Union in Wilton Manors Florida (where I worked briefly in the 80's) was subdivided into a fitness club and one of several gay nightclubs in the area. The neighborh...

I remember the KMart on Oakland Park Blvd in the Ft. Lauderdale area had a K-Mart Foods store in the early 1970's. Also there were two K-Marts that had Pantry Pride Supermarkets attached, also in the early 1970s. They were located in Margate on State Road 7 and in Pompano Beach at US1 & Copans R...

The store had competed with a large Albertsons ...
