Galesburg, IL former Kohl's Supermarket?

Post by army.arch »

I found this Hy-Vee liquor store at 1400 North Henderson Street, Galesburg, IL‎.

It definitely looks like a former Kohl's Supermarket, but the windows in the area under the arch are decidedly different from some of the other remnants of the chain.

As a sidenote at the corner of Henderson and West Main stands what had to be a former grocery store. I'm not that familiar with West Central Illinois though.

Thanks for any help in identifying these two stores.

the HyVee more likely was an Eagle.

The other store is an old National Tea from the 50s. It's typical of literally 100s of their old stores. The pylon would have had the diamond shaped 1950s logo on metal that National used.
