Red sign on red brick

However, there is one very strange thing going on with this store -- it has swinging doors! Every single local Safeway I've ever visited built from the 90s onward (and not converted from some other brand) -- and that's a lot of stores! -- has normal automatic sliding doors, so I have no clue why they would have done something different here. Also defying all logic (perhaps because Safeway has virtually no experience with swinging doors), the exit doors are on the left, further from the checkstands, while the entrance ones are on the right. I really don't get it. This would almost be enough for me to think this wasn't originally a Safeway, but the interior is exactly what a 2000-built Safeway would look like, so that doesn't make sense either.
