Summary

[edit]
Description
English: As seen in November 2020. Still visible, albeit faintly, on the side of the commercial building at 3323 Bailey Avenue in Buffalo, New York is a ghost sign identifying the building as the former home of a location of Loblaw Groceteria, a Canadian-owned grocery store chain that was the first in the Buffalo area to operate on a self-service (so-called "cash-and-carry") model. The Bailey Avenue store was in business from 1927 through c. 1946, and although Loblaws remains one of Canada's largest supermarket chains, they pulled out of the U.S. market in the 1970s. The building is now vacant.
