Walgreens Milwaukee - Marquette
The second-oldest continuously operating Walgreens, in Milwaukee, WI. The Marquette campus Walgreens at 1600 W Wisconsin Ave opened September 22, 1931. The store featured a cake ceremony to commemorate the 80th birthday in 2011. (The oldest continuously-operating Walgreens is somewhere in Tennessee.) It might have had a small expansion or two at some point, but other than that, has never been drastically remodeled.

These Lithonia lights and round air diffusers are from the 1970s. Unlike the 1960s Walgreens lights, these feature a triangular reflector in the center.
