Save Mart - Sonora

In July 1966, Save Mart opened a new 20,000-square-foot supermarket at 130 W Stockton St. This store was a replacement for an older store located just adjacent to the new store. The grand opening newspaper article noted: "The new Save Mart store on Stockton St. has joined the swelling list of buildings which reflect the heritage of Sonora. The slump stone and large timbers which front the building enclose a modern, attractive and well-equipped supermarket that offers a wide variety of products". The old store building became a drugstore after Save Mart moved out, and is now subdivided amongst multiple retailers. The current store received an interior remodel in the late 1980s, and none since then. Sometime during the 2000s or 2010s, however, the front facade was slightly redone.
