Snapshot: Redner's Warehouse Markets - Milford, DE

Redner's Warehouse Markets Opened: 2012 Previous Tenants:  none Location:  28253 Lexus Dr, Milford, DE Photographed:  December 2019 Apologies for the terribleness of these pictures. Again, most of these pictures in the Delmarva Peninsula were shot out a car window while on a road trip with family. I managed to get one shot that looks decent at the top here, but you can see what I was working with below. This Redner's is quite interesting because the 50,000 square foot store was built brand-new in 2012 by Redner's despite its similarity in appearance to the 1990s GIANT-PA store design. Allow me to recommend reading over the comments here for more detail on what's going on, and to see a much better picture of the storefront. Really not a whole lot to see on the inside. Tomorrow, we do have a very interesting former supermarket over on Grocery Archaeology a little farther to the south of here!

TOUR: Save-A-Lot - Milford, DE

And, uh, unfortunately, it's our last. See, I was passing through the Delmarva peninsula on a family road trip from New Jersey to Norfolk -- so I was not exactly the one calling the shots. Consequently, my coverage of the area is sadly rather limited. There's still some good stuff here, though. We can't exactly see this here, but the roughly 14,000 square foot Save-A-Lot appears to be in part or all of a 1950s/60s-era ACME. In fact, it looks like the ACME would've taken up the whole strip of Save-A-Lot and everything to the left. So it's not overly exciting but I am glad I photographed this Save-A-Lot, albeit a very rushed photography mission, because it closed in December 2020 or January 2021. Looks like it was a casualty of Save-A-Lot's switch from retailer to wholesaler. Glad to h...
