    The French Market boosted  171,000 square feet total, with 135,000 square feet allotted to general merchandise and another 36,000 to food and drug – twice the size of the average 1963 supermarket.
The interior was designed by Brand-Worth and Associates, a Los Angeles-based retail design firm. The French Market design team was led by Brand-Worth creative director Ray Jacobs.
