 store / shop, historical building

Built in 1924, the Olive Avenue Market was one of nearly fifteen neighborhood grocery stores at the time. The market had a brief state of historical and architectural significance. Arthur M. Nolder built the market and launched one of the biggest political controversies in the history of Redlands. Several city fathers called the stucco store beautiful but were answered by concerned citizens who were upset by over-commercialization. The controversy led to the creation of a planning commission and zoning plans. The Olive Avenue Market was also home to one of the first Stater Brothers markets, from 1939-1974 as Stater Complete Food Market owned and operated by Leo and Laboy Stater. -- oliveavenuemarket.com/about-olive-ave-market/
