How Many of These Grand Junction Businesses of the 1940s + 50s Still Exist?
How many of these Grand Junction area businesses of the 1940s and 50s still exist? I can count five right off the top of my head. See how many you can find.
The video features Robert Grant photos of Grand Junction and Fruita businesses from the 40s and 50s. No doubt you'll see several business names you don't recognize. At the same time, though, you'll probably see a few you do recognize, albeit their locations don't look familiar.
Personally, I'm currently a customer at five of the businesses shown in the video:
- Roper Music
- Western Slope Auto
- City Market
- JC Penney
- The Daily Sentinel
Roper Music only recently moved to North Avenue, while Western Slope Auto moved from Main Street to the west end of town decades ago.
Check out the video. Were you a customer of these businesses? Did you shop JC Penney while it was still downtown? How many still exist?
