Popes Market in Wakefield, VA. This building as always been shuttered since we moved to Wakefield in 2000. There used to be a Pepsi mural pained on the side of the building, but it was pained over a few weeks ago.
When I worked at a courtesy clerk at The Fresh Market, I was carrying out a couple’s grocery cart, and some reason I told them I lived in Wakefield and they started to tell me about the market they owned : Pope’s Market. I told them that the store was pracically in my backyard, and they instantly knew where I lived.
