I think this is where Chad or David splits the topic!luckysaver wrote: What's the history behind the 3 Ralphs stores on that stretch of Whittier Blvd (Colima, Quad, and Sorenson)?

The Sorenson / Whittier Ralphs was formerly an Alpha Beta, which started off Pickering, then moved to Hadley, then to the final spot on Whittier.
The Ralphs at the quad was an original build in the late 80s when the original Quad was heavily damaged in the quake of 87. There used to be a Vons at this site. The Ralphs had moved from the smaller location across the street that at one point was a Market Basket.
Finally, I think the Ralphs off Whittier / Covina was always there.
