sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" />Here’s a convenient one-stop-shop from 1953: Go see John Wayne in “The Fighting Kentuckian” at the Bay Theater, then pick up some Vitalis hair tonic at Bay Pharmacy, and then go next door to the Bay Market for some Wonder Bread. And it looks like parking is a breeze, too! This combo stood on the southeast corner of Sunset Blvd and La Cruz Dr. just north of Santa Monica.</p> <p>Laura Beth W. said: “Behind the Bay was Hughes market and a car wash. My parents would drop us off at the Bay on Saturday mornings in the early 70s and we’d stay and watch a double feature. It’s walking distance from the high school, so the Pharmacy was our go to for candy and magazines. Norris Hardware was also a Palisades staple. It had been in a different part of the Village (on Swarthmore, if I remember correctly, which is ironically where the revamped Bay Theater now is.)”</p> <p>Imagine my surprise when I looked up this location on Google Maps to find that although the theater-pharmacy-market have gone, the building is still there. Or at least that vertical whatever-the-word-is on the roof.
