    Let’s hope that our local store is purchased by another chain. Would be a shame to lose this.

    Why the hell was there a Dominick’s literally a block away? Also looking at that link provided, why were there two so close to each other in Andersonville?

    The 2 Stores were not open at the same time. They wanted to enlarge so they built the present store and closed the on Walgreens was in.

    Both Broadway stores co-existed for several months as I remember. My mom called the new location “Sister Dominick’s”. I’m not 100% certain, but I think that sometime in the early 60’s the 6125 location housed an S.S. Kresge department store. The Kresge chain eventually became K-Mart.
