Pioneer Market Memories: Saturday Night Shopping
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/saturday-night-shopping.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. From 1969 to 1976, I used to go with my grandmother grocery shopping. Every Saturday evening. When we were done, we would get a Yellow Cab. That would park on Sunset, but not before getting a box of chicken. My. Favorite item in the store was a box of detergent that had a towel. Echo Park Historical Society. Does anyone remember when Phil Spector would cash his checks at the Pioneer in 1958? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Echo Park Historical Society.

Pioneer Market Memories: Market in Turmoil
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/market-in-turmoil.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. I lived in Echo Park from 1988 to 1996 and frequently shopped at the Pioneer Market. Great Hispanic food, very friendly people, and much fun during holidays.But my strongest memory is from the 1992 riot following acquittal of the police involved in the Rodney King beating. Guard all around the store. It was truly bizarre to see this friendly neighborhood grocery store that I'd shopped at for years surrounded by obviously armed military officers.

Pioneer Market Memories: After School at Pioneer
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/after-school-at-pioneer.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. After School at Pioneer. I remember going shopping with my grandma, all the time there and going home with a bunch of bag and remember hating that because we lived right on the top of Laveta Terrace. This was 1987-93 I also remember when I would go to school every morning (I went to Logan St. School). Loved so mush for many years. Echo Park Historical Society. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Pioneer Market Memories: Wonderful Times
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2008/02/wonderful-times.html
Thursday, February 07, 2008. Echo Park Historical Society. Hi,Did you ever run into Phil Spector in those days at the Pioneer Market? I talked to the previous owner that remembered seeing many celebrities in his store but not Phil,which seems plausible because Phil wasnt a celebrity at the time. Many people in the community would cash their pay checks there on Fridays, including my parents. They would leave me in a car with my siblings parked out back while they shopped.

Pioneer Market Memories: Bargain Hunters

Friday, September 08, 2006. I used to go shopping with my father at the market in 1950. I was. 9 years old and we would get eggs, milk, and butter. He would complain.

Pioneer Market Memories: The "Weenermobile" Arrives
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/weenermobile-arrives.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. My memory of the Pioneer Market was that my mother used to take me there around 4 am to avoid the crowds. We would go down the isles and shop for canned goods and we were able to take our time. Oddly, I recall the labels on the cans were very beautiful and colorful and. I also clearly remember seeing a small building being built in the parking lot in front of the liquor store around 1964 or so. It was the "Pioneer Chicken Take Out" building. The liquor store was a fun ...Frank...

http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/market-is-gone-but-memories-remain.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. The Market is Gone but the Memories Remain. Pioneer was like a place where you were bound to bump into a classmate, neighbor, friend, or even a teacher. When I moved to West Covina, I'd make it a thing to go back when I was in the neighborhood and take advantage of the specials. I even showed my kids where I. Echo Park Historical Society.

Pioneer Market Memories: The Family Business
http://pioneermarketmemories.blogspot.com/2006/09/family-business.html
Friday, September 08, 2006. Working there on week-ends got me spending money, working there full-time since 1984 got me a house. Pioneer was my home away from home. Until its closure, my kids would come visit me, and play hid-and-seek in the warehouse. Our family was the people who worked with us. Closing the store will always be one of the most difficult decisions my family will have ever made. Life will go on, and the memories I take with me are the people who I saw on a daily basis.
