Fiesta Mart I-10 and Lyons Ave.

As a side note to my readers, I have uploaded all of my Kmart photos here with the exception of my final visit to the McAllen Kmart. That post is coming soon. I have a wealth of links below to check out if anyone needs to do further research on Kmart sites or other retail establishments. Another great resource for Kmart photos is on the Discord app. Check out the Deadmalls of Discord and The Retail Union on Discord. There are tons of retail enthusiasts 24/7 that do a much better job of documenting retail than I do here. I certainly appreciate the comments, but I don't have any more info or photos regarding any of the Kmart stores besides what is already on here.

Here is another fascinating Houston area Fiesta Market location. As you can see here, the Fiesta sign had been replaced with the new logo, but the chasing light rectangle was still going. This location and the nearby Tidwell Road location still had the chasing light signage in early 2022. Not very many of the older chasing light signage like this still exist and they are being pulled down one by one. 

As you can see this is a fairly small location, probably less than 30,000 square feet in space.

The older 1980's signage is still intact throughout the store. Not much has changed on the inside of this store since opening, enjoy it before it changes!



The main entrance.

This photo makes the store seem larger than it is. The aisles are very condensed in this small location.

Front of the store, very condensed in comparison to most modern era Fiesta Markets.

Another look at the produce department with the pinatas stacked on the produce coolers.

More old signage.

For some reason, this strangely branded flour caught my eye. 

Old signage, when was the last time you said margarine instead of butter?

Now for the really cool stuff. This store still has two neon signs. Here is the dairy sign from multiple angles. This is the back left corner of the store.

Now for more cool neon signage. The Seafood department has this sign with chasing lights and flashing neon. I will post the motion video on my upcoming Fiesta signs video. This is the back right corner of the store.
