Retail 24/7 has put together a list of selected A&P Centennial model stores. These were distinctive buildings, developed for A&P's 100th anniversary in 1959, that were replicated across the country. They were brick buildings, with a sloping shingled roof, a brick facade with a peak in the middle, and a cupola on top.
