In the past few years, mainstays Rite-Aid, Omni Video, Kragen, have left, leaving the center to look like a ghost town at times.
La Mirada families of the past enjoyed La Mirada icons National Lumber, Sprouse Reitz, Thrifty Drug, The Christian Book Store, and Winchell's to name a few, who once adorned the property as tenants.
The property currently houses long-time tenants including Jay's Kitchen that have been in the center since it's inception.
Vons shopper Alfred Vargas of La Mirada, was shocked, "My wife shops here all the time. She is going to be very upset. This is devastating to the community."
Manager Jeff Judziewicz confirmed the scheduled closure,"Vons has sold the property, and as far as I know another tenant will be moving in." He also mentioned that no reason has been given for the closure.
