Here's something that ties "supermarket history" with Tower Records pretty neatly:
2500 16th Street, in the Tower District (at Broadway and Land Park Drive) of Sacramento, spent many years as a Tower Records unit after it moved out from the old drugstore/Tower Theater location a few blocks away.
THAT...
according to the Sacramento section of this website, had been a Safeway until 1955.
