Kmart Forever

Kmart #3416, located at 2090 Lincoln Hwy E (1 East Towne Mall) in Lancaster, Pennsylvania originally opened as a Grant City. It became Kmart in February 1977. Kmart closed in May 2015 , becoming Gabe's within that same year. In 2018, Gabe's was downsized, adding A. C. Moore to the right side. (and we all know what happened to A. C. Moore ). The auto center has been occupied by Automotive Masters since the mid-2000s.

This Kmart opened in the East Towne Center in 1977, as the second Kmart in Lancaster County. The store closed in May 2015 and became Gabe's around 2016. Around 2018, the Gabe's was downsized and an A. C. Moore store was added. In early 2020, the A. C. Moore permanently closed with the rest of the chain, leaving part of the building to be vacant again. An older photo I took about two years ago. I plan to return soon and get a better quality picture.
