Here's a surreal photo of the now-closed Ellice Avenue marina Safeway in Winnipeg:

From the Live Local birdeye view, this looks to be a marina with an remodeled front:

When I was up in Vancouver earlier this year, I seem to recall passing by at least one Marina Safeway that was still a Safeway (and looked like a fairly well-preserved Marina from the outside as well.) Do you happen to know which one that was? I did a little bit of looking around at Google Street View but couldn't find it again.

Was it the Granville Safeway?

Yes, that would be the one. I wasn't aware that it had been granted historic landmark status.
