Notes:

  • Edmonton’s street network is unusual in that it features a numbered grid and quadrant system, but this system is not centered on the center of town, which is more or less located at the intersection of 100th Street and 100th Avenue. Therefore, basically all of the city is in the northwest quadrant, and very high block and street numbers may actually be very close to downtown.
  • 1945 and 1950 directories do not have a classified listing for grocers so some chains may be missing.

Store tags:

  • Black & White
  • Dominion
  • Foodland
  • IGA
  • Loblaws/L-Mart
  • Nu-Way
  • Red & White

  • Tait Groceteria
