Eco-friendly Midlands Co-op supermarket at Oakham, Rutland- they harvest rainwater, use special refidgeration units which use a lot less power (and use the by-product heat to warm the building), gross grass on the roof to insulate, use computer controlled ventilation (all natural where possible), even the lighting is automatic and only operates when needed (computers monitor light levels and open/close blinds on the windows where needed).
(this pile of overalls and hats made me smile for some reason!)

It used to be open 24 hours. Then they conveniently shaved the "4" to a "1" when they began closing three hours per night. Now they're barely open 12-15 hours per day, but the sign remains unaltered on Meer Way at Freeport Blvd in Sacramento.
YES, IT'S A SUPERMARKET!
An architectural masterpiece the historic Cleveland Trust Rotunda Building, a shining example of early 20th century grandeur giving us a glimpse into Cleveland’s historic past and current home to Heinen’s Grocery Store.
At the turn of the 20th century in the midst of great industrial and economic growth, Cleveland experienced tremendous prosperity, quickly growing to become the 7th largest city in the nation. In 1906 the Cleveland Trust Company, having outgrown a series of office spaces, began construction on a central banking complex in the heart of the city. Renowned architect George B. Post was commissioned to design the building.
In 1908 the Cleveland Trust Company building officially opened its doors to the public, just two years after construction had begun. The Cleveland Trust Co., or AmeriTrust as they were later known, occupied the space until merging with Society Corp. in the early 1990’s.
Beginning in early 2015, this architecture masterpiece has served as the Downtown Cleveland home to Heinen’s Grocery Store, Cleveland’s oldest family owned grocer and is open to the public once again. Led by John Williams of Cleveland's Process Creative Studios, this iconic structure has been carefully renovated and restored to it's original beauty.
OLD Location: 2103 Carlisle Blvd NE at Indian School Road NE, Indian School Plaza (former location of '60s Indian Plaza Shopping Center), 8:16pm
My review of the current Carlisle site across the street, including a pic of that current location, is here.
Looking across the bus station at the Airedale Shopping Centre, 24th April 1989. Taken from the multi-storey car park after the glass-ceiling covered walkways have been completed. Shops include Cardshops Plus, H. Samuel's, Co-Op Foodstore, Gas showroom and Bradford and Bingley Building Society. The tower of Keighley Parish Church and the Westgate Gardens flats can be seen in the distance. The crescent-shaped Omnibus Station is on the right. Photograph taken by Roy Dean Willoughby.
Roy Dean Willoughby was born in Keighley on 1st February 1932, and lived most of his life in East Morton. He wanted to be a cabinet maker but his father was a fishmonger, with a shop in Bingley, and Roy followed in his footsteps. From the late 1960s, he owned and ran the fish and chip shop at 253 Bradford Road (now Stockbridge Fisheries) up until 1983. There are tales of him giving the leftovers at the end of the day to those who were struggling or homeless. After he retired and sold the business he went on to work with his son at Studio 127 on East Parade. They were signwriters and made posters, producing shop signs for businesses in Keighley. He was passionate about photography and he took thousands of photographs throughout his life. Some of his photographs are believed to have been used by Keighley News. Roy passed away on 7th May 2012. Many of his photographs have been inherited by his grandson, Billy Stride, who took it upon himself to scan all the negatives and slides that his grandfather had taken. "I feel it is my duty to do this as I want these memories to survive and to be looked back on. I want his name to be remembered and for his view of Keighley and the world to be remembered too." Some of the images were shared with Keighley and District Local History Society in October 2020.

Romeoville, IL. Taken during a mid-December visit (about two weeks before closing). Milk & eggs were not reduced at this point, that would occur several days later.
The Venetian Ghetto was the area of Venice in which Jews were compelled to live under the Venetian Republic. It is from its name in Italian ("ghetto"), that the English word "ghetto" is derived: in the Venetian language it was named "ghèto". The Venetian Ghetto (incidentally, the first Ghetto) was instituted in 1516, though political restrictions on Jewish rights and residences existed before that date.
Though it was home to a large number of Jews, the population living in the Venetian Ghetto never assimilated to form a distinct, "Venetian Jewish" ethnicity. Four of the five synagogues were clearly divided according to ethnic identity: separate synagogues existed for the German (the Scuola Grande Tedesca), Italian (the Scuola Italiana), Spanish and Portuguese (the Scuola Spagnola), and Levantine Sephardi communities (The Scola Levantina). The fifth, the Scuola Canton, is believed to have been either French, or a private synagogue for the families who funded its construction. Today, there are also populations of Ashkenazic Jews in Venice, mainly Lubavitchers who operate one of two kosher foodstores, a yeshiva, and the aforementioned Chabad synagogue.
In September 1938, the promulgation of the fascist racial laws deprived the Jews of civil rights, and the Jewish community entered a difficult period under the leadership first of Aldo Finzi and subsequently (from June 1940 onwards) of Professor Giuseppe Jona.
In September 1943, Italy changed from being an ally of Nazi Germany into an occupied country, and the Nazis started a systematic hunt for Jews in Venice as in other Italian cities. On 17 September, Professor Jona committed suicide rather than hand over to the German authorities a list of Jewish community residents.
In November 1943, Jews were declared 'enemy aliens' in accordance with the manifesto of the Italian Social Republic, to be arrested and their property seized. Although some Jews managed to escape to neutral Switzerland or Allied-occupied southern Italy, over two hundred were rounded up, most between 5 December 1943 (when approximately 150 were arrested) and late summer 1944. They were held at the city's Marco Foscarini college, the women's prison on Giudecca, the prison at Santa Maria Maggiore and subsequently at Fossoli concentration camp, before being deported, in most cases, to Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1944. Those arrested later in 1944 included some 20 residents of a Jewish convalescence home, the Casa di Ricovero Israelitica (including Venice's Chief Rabbi, Adolfo Ottolenghi, who chose to follow the fate of his fellow deportees) and 29 from a Jewish hospital. Most of those arrested in the summer of 1944 spent time incarcerated at Risiera di San Sabba concentration camp, Trieste. Although a figure of two hundred and five Jewish deportees from Venice between November 1943 and August 1944 is often quoted, one source give the higher figure of 246, which includes those deported to Trieste, some of whom died there, and a smaller number of arrests after this point up until the end of the war. Only 8 Jewish residents of Venice emerged from the death camps. The 1938 Jewish population of Venice (2000) was reduced by the war's end to 1500, or in some sources 1050.
What was Europe's first ghetto is now a lively and popular district of the city where the religious and administrative institutions of the Jewish Community and its five synagogues still persist.
Today, the Ghetto is still a center of Jewish life in the city. The Jewish Community of Venice, that counts 500 people, is of such cultural vitality that it is often a centre for the cultural life of the entire city.
