Actually 1801 W 11th is the replacement for 1950 W 11th, across
the street, which is now Save Mart. Safeway left Tracy for a few years in the late 80s/early 90s, from about 86/87 when the gable closed to 92. I grew up in Tracy so I know all this stuff.

Re: Sambo's Restaurant Locations in California
[There was actually 2 locations in Stockton.] - The first one was located at 11 N. Center street which I believe opened in 1968 or 1969.That location later became a "Season's" then a "Bakers Square" and later a "Country Waffle House" before becoming a "Arizona Rest...

I'm 100% certain there was no connection at all, and I wasn't trying to suggest that there was. The California incarnation of Mammonth Mart was entirely a Raley's phenomemon, and was probably limited to one specific store on Folsom Boulevard in Sacramento (which remains a Raley's to this day).[/quot...

Brooklyn & Ford Market, East Los Angeles
Anybody ever been to this store? My third-hand guess is that it dates to the 1940s, at the latest. I'm wondering what this was in a previous life. The current name refers to it's location, at the corner of what was Brooklyn (now Cesar E. Chavez) Avenue and Ford Boulevard. (Just east of the 710 Long ...
