1964 Safeway in Tiburon, CA
Here's an aerial view of Tiburon, CA from the 1970s showing the pyramid-roofed Safeway in the upper right corner (at 1599 Tiburon Blvd.) from about 1964 that has been a Bell Market since 1997. Notice that the main pyramid is capped with a small pyramid, which contains clarestory windows. The store is very intact today, except for the decor. Even the original exterior globe lights (barely visible in the right wall) and streetlights are still in use;

Cool store, but I prefer the odd location near the highway for some reason.
