An ad from the September 1960 edition of Chain Store Age (page 149) shows this market.

Although, as stated on Pure Grocery Stores, the Yard Birds was a Shopper's World discount store at least as far back as the late 1960s.

Whether or not the Yard Birds was originally this Broadway Market, it sure is a nice find anyway!. The exterior AND the interior architecture are nearly entirely original, and one notable feature is the original green terrazzo floor throughout.
