Albertsons #2549 Mission Viejo, CA
Former Lucky Supermarket. This Albertsons previously had a cheaper Jewel/Santa Fe decor application before it was remodeled to Colorful Lifestyle. The Jewel decor was added on, but left behind some of the wall trim from the previous Lucky decor. I'm not sure if this Jewel remodel happened under Albertsons, or if this was one of the few Lucky remodeled before Albertsons took them over.
This store was previously one of the many Lucky stores that had translucent lighting over the registers and the freezer aisles in the center store. Unlike many remodels which included ripping out the lighting and replacing it with the traditional tile ceiling, it looks like the lighting was taken out when it was remodeled to Jewel, and ceiling tiles and tube lighting covered up what was once there. Stater Bros #130 in Palmdale is a good example of what the translucent lighting in Lucky stores looked like, as they chose to leave that lighting in place when they took over a Lucky divest.
