With the 2 locations that I just mentioned, that brings the number of known Kroger Family Centers (known to me) to a grand total of 45.

If you want to view all the locations that I've tracked you can find them here:

I've already listed the store in Greenville, MS

But what about the store in Greenville, NC, which I just found out about:

https://www.newspapers.com/search/?quer ... ince=us-nc
https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/622 ... le&match=1

Which now brings the total number of known locations to 46. However, I couldn't find the exact address of the building, just the fact that it was located somewhere on US-264 ALT

I found some more missing locations

3007 Anderson Ave, Manhattan, KS 66503 Closed sometime around 1973, later Alco
900 E 8th St, Coffeyville, KS 67337 Also closed sometime around 1973, was later a Walmart, which has since also closed and has since been demolished
2812 W Andrew Johnson Hwy, Morristown, TN 37814 Probably also closed sometime in 1973

W Taylor St Griffin, GA Announced in late 1971, doesn't appear to have ever actually opened
N Tennessee Blvd Murfreesboro, TN 37130 Announced in late 1971, doesn't appear to have ever actually opened

That brings my grand total of Kroger Family Center stores to 49 if you dont count the ones which were planned but never actually opened.

The current building here is the former Kroger building. Google street view on the east side shows the aggregate walls, albeit painted.

900 E 8th St, Coffeyville, KS 67337 Also closed sometime around 1973, was later a Walmart, which has since also closed and has since been demolished

Walmart disguised this one well, but street view shows the same thing. It was torn down between 2017 -2019.

2812 W Andrew Johnson Hwy, Morristown, TN 37814 Probably also closed sometime in 1973

Triple ditto here.

W Taylor St Griffin, GA Announced in late 1971, doesn't appear to have ever actually opened
N Tennessee Blvd Murfreesboro, TN 37130 Announced in late 1971, doesn't appear to have ever actually opened

Kroger has locations in both of these cities, but little, if any proof of them being Family Centers. For our purposes here, we shouldn't count them.

I understand that they were planned. Planned and opened are quite different.. Because they were not opened, we should not count them for historical purposes.

It appears we lost another one, but this one was already closes:

Lake Charles was already closed, but Hurricanes Laura and Delta pretty much finished it off, so 6 years later, it's finally been razed.

Too bad. That one was a beauty.

Even prior to closing, it was far worse for wear inside. The outside was just tilt-wall aggregate, though the back tilt was part of the structure failure during Laura and Delta - it bowed out in the back, separating from the roof supports, then pulling a huge section of the roof off on the western part of the building.

That video must have been taken in 2019 just after the store closed. Most of that mezzanine area in the back appeared to be in the area where the roof came off.
