Not a lot of clues remain along the front but around back the store is still all Acme....
Acme's parking lot sign is now sign-less.
Food Lion is located on the right side of the shopping center.
1982
1970
1966
The parking lot was built for a larger shopping center which didn't materialize until years later.
If I am not mistaken it closed when the Baltimore Division closed, in 1989. This resulted in many veteran employees from the city bumping department heads and others from Falston down Route 40 and south to Chestertown, Centreville, and Stephensville as thirty stores closed in one day.
