Farewell, Searcy Kroger (empty shell)

SET 5 – Searcy Kroger Closing

For our final shot of this album, I thought I’d share this image, which was uploaded by a user to Google Maps sometime after the store’s closure. It’s kind of a depressing shot to end on, to be sure, but I nonetheless found it interesting enough to see the storefront with that clear hexagon-shaped labelscar, and especially the Kroger cube devoid of its sign faces :( As I noted much earlier in the album, happier days have since arrived for the building, which is now serving as locally-owned Dale's Clothing. It may not be a grocery store any longer, but at least the space was filled with another business. Very sad to see such an original, vintage Kroger go, but I’m at least happy that I got the opportunity to visit it, photograph it, and share it with y’all!

We’re fast approaching the end of the year, which means once again my flickrversary is coming up. Stay tuned for a special post to celebrate that here in a few days, and then we’ll launch full steam ahead into 2024 with our next store tour – stick around!
