I took this in the late 1970s in Strawberry Plains, TN. It is long gone and is now part of the neighbors' lawn.

On April 1, 1933, after the boycott of Jewish stores was announced, the Gebrüder Barasch department store was one of the first to undergo the process of Aryanization, i.e. the deprivation of property and the restriction of other property rights and personal rights of owners and entitled persons because of their Jewish origin. The brothers' shares were forcibly sold to merchants from elsewhere in Germany.
The Barasch family lived in Wrocław until 1921, and then moved to Berlin. Artur and his family lived at Wissmannstraße 11,.... The remaining property of Artur Barasch in the years 1941–1942 was confiscated, and he himself was accused of foreign exchange fraud and sentenced to prison and a fine of 40,000 marks. This amount was paid by his brother, but he himself was sent to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, where he died on November 6, 1942. His wife and children survived the war. On May 8, 1945, his son Werner escaped from internment camps and concentration camps and moved to Philadelphia.
Georg Barasch lived with his two children from his first marriage and his second wife [in Berlin] During the period of persecution, he went with his wife Betty and son Erich to Switzerland, to Zurich, and from there to Ecuador, to Quito. His daughter and her family fled to New York.

This is one of 3 (THREE!) grocery stores I spotted downtown. There's also a co-op and a larger EconoFoods downtown.
As someone who lives less than a half mile from a grocery store in Minneapolis, I must say that this is THE livability factor I never appreciated until I had it. There's something magical about being able to take a walk after dinner and come home with two bags of groceries.
