Vons is building a new store at Broadway and Atlantic in Long Beach, and demolished the existing store. Safeway opened up there in 1966 and it became a Vons in 1989. Marina style store, but it was small.
Parking was a problem at that store, but not any more as they plan to have roof top parking.

Re: Ralphs - Crenshaw/Rodeo
The Ralphs was actually across the street on the corner of Crenshaw and Rodeo. The Boys opened in 1955.

Re: Zody's
Here's a picture of it now. Definitely Oxnard.
Several stores had a similar design. Vermont and Slauson, Upland, and one of the Vegas stores for sure.

Re: Zody's
Actually the El Monte/Santa Anita was a later style that Zodys went to. Here's a pic I took about 4 years ago.

Re: Zody's
Here's a shot of the Bakersfield Zodys before it was remodeled into a Home Depot.
This was probably the only store that was unchanged after they closed. Most of the Giants/Ralphs/Food 4 Less stores covered up the top portion of the store.
