Meat Football Seafood
SET 1 – Crossgates Kroger
Up next along the rear wall is the meat and seafood service counter, tastefully done here with blue paint to differentiate it from the orange paint surrounding it to either side. I like the stenciling on the orange paint areas too, and with the illustrations added next to the department name, all in all I feel this is a very good looking low-ceiling version of the more typical higher-ceiling example. In fact, I might even like it better!
Something I was going to comment on being interesting here was how the “drop-down” portion of ceiling is located next to the counter rather than right above it (better seen in the previous image; pay attention to the area where the wall stencils are). Those drop-down areas are where the neon signage was usually placed, but as it turns out, Horn Lake, too, didn’t have a drop-down over its meat counter, and yet still had the neon signage there, so I suppose this isn’t too strange of a setup after all.
Hope y’all are enjoying this one so far – we’ll be back soon to continue around the rest of the store. In the meantime, up next, I’m going to be trying something new – rather than going back to the Horn Lake Target just yet, I’m going to introduce a third store to the rotation to try and keep things fresh. Whether that sticks permanently or is just temporary while we still go through all those Target remodel pics, I’m not yet sure, but either way, please be sure to come back in a few days for that!

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
