The Arrow Food Market originally opened across the street at 1023- 4th
St. SW. in 1945/46. By 1955 it had moved to this store at 1101. It was
owned and operated many years by Justo Sanchez. The store was still operating
in the late 1980s, but had apparently closed sometime before 2007. The
building was sold in 2018 with the new owner intending to locate an antique
shop there.
There's
a pretty cool sign hanging on the front of the Arrow Market building
at 1101 SW 4th St. Albuquerque, NM.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
