In the Netherlands there is a lot of discussion about the wearing facemasks because of the pandemic. Despite that a new store opened in Utrecht selling facemasks. Let's hope that medical personnel is clothed far better than these mannequins...
MOC: Modular LEGO Store.
The original LEGO Brand Retail Store set also has these skylights, but in this case they're actually transparent and will let light into the building. I also scaled them up from 2x3 studs on the original to 2x4, as that's a more iconic LEGO brick.
This 123,455 square foot Kroger Marketplace store opened on April 6th, 2016. This is my first time at one of the Marketplace stores since I generally hunt down smaller or dated Kroger stores and Kroger doesn't have stores in my area. Here is the previous location this store replaced www.flickr.com/photos/fanofretail/11229403274/; oddly enough the old location was open 24 hours, but the new one is open 6am to 1am...
The store seemed very similar to Giant Eagle's Market District concept, except it had more general merchandise items and didn't have a full cafe / restaurant. One thing I did notice is that the left side was very busy, but the further to the right side I went, the store got much emptier. The far right side with apparel, seasonal, toys, and pharmacy was just about a ghost town... I imagine, if other Marketplace stores have similar shopping patterns, Kroger will tweak the concept and possibly ditch certain departments like apparel.
I can see why Kroger would want to branch out into selling general merchandise; the supermarket industry has lower margins and general merchandise has higher margins. The marketplace stores don't seem to (in my opinion) offer enough departments like toys and apparel to become a destination for those types of items. Also, I seriously doubt those types of items are really impulse buys that people will buy when they are at a supermarket. On the other hand, the store does seem good at merchandising other items such as kitchen or general household merchandise that do go along with groceries. The store concept seems to be in the gray area between supermarket (grocery and related items) and supercenter (a store that has pretty much everything), which may not be a good place to be.
Overall, the Marketplace concept seems pretty good though.

For Monday's Weekly Photo Challenge - "something having to do with music." This is the facade of a local piano store that I thought would be fitting for this week's theme.
I took this view of Tri-Town Plaza in Marlton, NJ. in the 1980's. This was opened in 1975 as an enclosed mini-mall during that craze but was converted into a strip center in the early 1980's. Actually two photos pieced together. At the far right of the center is the store I work at, opened as A&P - when I was hired in 1983 it had just been converted into an A&P Super Fresh. The K mart is now a Sears.

Photo from Polks Miami 1956 Directory. This shopping center had a lot of midcentury architecture and is at the end of the MIMO distict on Biscayne Boulevard. The shopping center has been remodeled and has lost most of its midcentiury MIMO distinctive design. There were two Belks in Miami. The other one was a much smaller store at Red Bird Shopping Center and was open till the 1980s. I'm not sure when this one closed. If anyone knows please comment.

A somewhat depressed looking store in Columbus-area, still hanging onto the early 1980's "shelf-like" roof awning that appeared on many stores of this vintage. This one was lucky enough to escape the "BIG" branding so many are stuck with today.

A bowl of ramen made from a variety of dried and pickled ingredients, which you can keep in your cupboard. The bamboo shoots are pickled from a jar, the ginger is from a sealed package, the konbu comes in a sealed package and has a delicious salty sweet flavour, the egg is obviously boiled and sliced, and the spring onions and seaweed are dried - you reconstitute the seaweed, but the spring onions can be added as they are, giving flavour to the stock as they soak.
This was shot for the rust challenge this week...I am definitely rusty at getting out and shooting. This is an example of caring my Coolpix A with me everywhere.

MOC: Modular LEGO Store. Based on the LEGO Brand Retail Store set that has been used as a giveaway at store openings over the past couple of years, but blown up to minifig scale.
And yes, I know that the original set isn't a corner building, but I just hadn't built one yet and needed one for a layout I was working on :)
I am not sure what this space was. It looks like it had an exterior entrance at one time so maybe it was a variety store, drug store, grocery store, or a value store for the department store.
Photos of the Beaver Valley Mall Macy's from when it was closing in March 2017. This store was previously Gimbels then a Kaufmann's before becoming Macy's. Kaufmann's relocated from a store in nearby Rochester in 1986.
The Beaver Valley Mall was opened in 1970. The mall was originally anchored by Sears, Gimbels, and Joseph Horne Co. In 1986, Gimbels closed and Kaufmann's moved into the space from a previous location nearby. In 1995, Horne's was rebranded as Lazarus and closed in 1998. JCPenney was added to the mall in 1998 and a Boscov's store replaced the former Horne's / Lazarus space. In 2006, Kaufmann's was rebranded as Macy's. In 2007, Dick's sporting goods was opened at the mall. Sears closed in June 2016 and Macy's closed on March 26, 2017.

800 W Central Ave, Delaware, OH
A fixture in Delaware, Ohio, since 1969, the store relocated from a few blocks to the east back in 1986. The store's last day was February 13, 2016.
This is the tile work on the men's room floor. I was trying to adjust my camera settings and took a random shot, but I do like the tile work.
This was once a Festival Foods grocery store. This was later a Steve & Barry's store.
