This might just be the best before-and-after comparison of the whole set, sadly enough! Just as in the typical Modern remodel, very little about the produce department was changed here, with the worn-out flooring and displays remaining as is. (The faux-wood flooring used in Lifestyle stores looked great when it was new, but it absolutely has not aged well...) This picture shows how the main produce department sign was pushed fairly far back within the department to accommodate the window walls in the front right corner of the building, which would be nice except they seem to be heavily tinted so they don't actually let very much light in. It's also interesting to see the black decor band on top of the cases -- this is more akin to Modern decor than Lifestyle v3, though it's not the style used in full Modern decor swaps; it was, however, used around the time this store remodeled to replace the Lifestyle v3-like decor band that had been introduced with the mid-2010s refresh, so I have to wonder if this store ever got the proper Lifestyle v3 decor. (It doesn't have the other Lifestyle v3 produce accents, like the stacked faux-crates in the middle of the square displays, that were typically introduced with the mid-2010s refreshes and which still remain in most stores following their Modern remodels, which seems to agree with that theory.)
