Re: Denver, CO: Super/markets near Stapleton airport early '80s

Great. That Denver section link was very useful, and I've now narrowed my search. I would like any information on either of the following around East Colfax and Leyden Street. Specifically if any of these still existed in December 1982, or what they might have been. 1. 6260 East Colfax Ave — Save-A-...

Avon, CO: CityMarket - late 1982 or early 1983

Hi Groceterians. Still doing research for a novel and I'm after some information about CityMarket in Avon, CO. I know it was adjacent to the Avon STOLport and had only recently opened earlier in 1982. A very large aerial photo taken in June 1982 shows cars in the pale concrete parking lot. I'd like ...

Re: Denver, CO: Super/markets near Stapleton airport early '80s

Hmm, interesting. Did find this Piggly Wiggly on the corner of E Montview Blvd & Dayton St from the 1950s. It's to the south of where Stapleton International Airport was, but a bit too far away. Curiously, the building is still there but is now a Mexican taco and burrito joint. Editorial photo f...

Re: Truckee, California: Safeway store location (+ photos, if any) - 1982

Hi Andrew. Yes, that is helpful. That photo is familiar too, as I'd seen this one on Flickr. I only notice now that the Rite Aid gable end is visible through the trees on the right. https://live.staticflickr.com/89/269740885_ad4c3123fd_b.jpg swytruckee by norcalstorepictures , on Flickr The Tamarack...

Truckee, California: Safeway store location (+ photos, if any) - 1982

Evening all. I am doing some research for a novel and would like some information on this Safeway store. I know the store was built circa. 1970, and was a Tahoe Truckee High yearbook sponsor in 1978. There is an advertisement for Safeway in the 1978 Wolverine yearbook, but no address. Another advert...
