We are spending a VERY short time here in South Philly for a look at one store -- and it's not even my own picture, so thanks to our contributor for this one! -- the ACME at 10th & Reed! Despite the fact that the store is referred to as the 10th & Reed location, its address isn't actually on either street. It's on Passyunk Avenue, which the store faces, but is where 10th and Reed both meet Passyunk. This was the second store to be remodeled post-Supervalu, and the first with a real Quality Built renovation (Devon had what might be more accurately called the version of Heritage used in Jewel-Osco and Shaw's, not sure why that didn't stick with ACME). Acme Style visited this store back in 2014, and since then, there's been some light renovation with new fixtures and flooring going into some areas of the store. Well, that's all for South Philly (for now -- I do hope to get back and get much more extensive coverage of Philadelphia someday). And up next we're moving onto Fishtown for a store over on The Independent Edition tomorrow!
