Groometown Eckerd in Greensboro - "It would be a shame if someone at LoopNet deleted the timestamp!"

This is just another photo of an Eckerd, this time in the Triad region, specifically Greensboro. This Triad location was built/opened in 1997 as one of the many "Phase 2" freestanding Eckerd stores that opened around the Sunbelt and the East Coast, from Florida to Texas to New York, around the same time Eckerd was under the ownership of JCPenney (who currently has a location at Four Seasons Town Center), who seeked to expand Eckerd's presence through the acquisition of Thrift Drug.

This store remained an Eckerd under Jean Coutu ownership when JCP sold Eckerd Corporation to JCG, with the Sunbelt/Florida/Midwest operations going to CVS, in summer of 2004.

With the Brooks/Eckerd-Rite Aid merger in 2007, the Groometown store became a Rite Aid, and was remodeled to the Customer World prototype as with most of the Brooks/Eckerd converts.

This location has faced the unfortunate conversion therapy to a W****eens, as the monster wanted to grow even bigger by acquiring most of the Rite Aids in the East Coast and the Mid-South, as was planned in the failed forced marr... excuse me, merger.

Anyways, LoopNet is infamously known for deleting timestamps, going as far as to insert their logo on the bottom right-hand corner of a photo. In the case of my fellow Mid-South friend Retail Retell, he did find a LoopNet photo of a Lone Star Steakhouse in Southaven, MS that had the logo, yet retains the original timestamp of December of 2005! Meanwhile, a certain Carolina Piedmonter will just have to fend for himself in looking up the timestamp of Loopnet photos, which LN may "intentionally" delete the original timestamp, since they don't care about preserving the timeline of their photos. Do not trust LoopNet.
