That store is still there today at Yonge and Sheppard. It's now a Metro (ex-Dominion).

Despite imminent redevelopment of the rest of the shopping center, the former Grand Union supermarket at 15 Ellesmere Rd. in Toronto, later a Dominion and now a Metro, was nominated for historical designation by the Scarborough Community Council. It opened August 20, 1958, and represented the ...

While looking at several ads on Flickr pages I ran across this one for Dominion stores (as featured in Better Living magazine, June 1953):

This past weekend marked the conversion of the first 6 Dominion Stores to be converted to Metro. I can't believe Metro is getting rid of an iconic name. By the end of the year, the Dominion name will be gone in Ontario. By the end of 2009, the A&P, ...

... the store renovation means parcel pickup will still be around in at least 1 Ottawa location for years to come. Here's a couple of photos of a Dominion in Mississauga, ON with parcel pickup where I managed to show the rollers/bins in great detail: http://www.flickr.com/photos/78111739@N00/313443076/in/set-72157594404409234/ ...

I was at a mall in Toronto a few weeks ago housing both a Dominion (Store #804) and a Price Chopper.

I'm going to Toronto in a couple of weeks, so I'll be on the lookout for other great looking A&P/Dominion/Food Basics stores. Out of the 60 or so around the GTA, I've probably only ever been to 1/3 of them. I also want to "check-out" the fairly new Whole Foods ...

I'm pretty sure that location has always been Dominion. Not to get too off topic, but the I do remember Miracle Mart banner was actually used around Ottawa by Steinberg's. However, in Ottawa these stores were general merchandise, low-end department ...

Carry-over from another thread: One store I'd recommend visiting is this Dominion in Mississauga (western Toronto suburb). It's one of the few A&P/Dominions left that still has a parcel pickup. Here's a couple of pics I've taken of it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/78111739@N00/324452982/in/set-72157594404409234/ ...

... in Belleville 1.5 hrs east of Toronto is an ex-Safeway. It's only a couple of minutes off of Hwy 401. One store I'd recommend visiting is this Dominion in Mississauga (western Toronto suburb). It's one of the few A&P/Dominions left that still has a parcel pickup. Here's a couple of pics ...

There's also this really amazing one which was mentioned in another thread, but apparently was always a Dominion:

Thanks.

By the way. There's another former Miracle Mart down the road on Yonge at Sheppard. It also has a really cool roof design. It's now a Dominion Save-a-Centre. Several ex-Miracle stores featured arched roofs.

A&P acquired Dominion in the 1980s, but what happened to Steinberg's? Per Wikipedia, their stores were former Grand Union stores purchased by the Steinbergs in 1959. Another post here suggested that the Steinberg family of Montreal ...

... I almost spit out my soda when I saw this amazing specimen. Based on the fact that it's now a Food Basics, I'd guess it was formerly a Dominion store, since it sure doesn't look like any A&P I've ever seen. However, I'm not all that familiar with their prototypes. On a related subject, ...

Here's another cool Dominion store from the Lottaliving.com message board. It's located at 1500 Royal York Road in Toronto.
