Abandoned Acme!


Here's a Parkesburg link in a blog dedicated to preserving the history of closed, abandoned and repurposed Acme Markets throughout Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.

This post has 20+ pictures and descriptions of the Parkesburg Acme's unique layout and format.

Another web page named "Last of a Kind" dedicates an entire page to explaining how Parkesburg's Acme is an example of a "style of postwar American architecture that is born out of exuberance of that era."
