Citrus Village
Citrus Village is a shopping center in Redlands, California, one of the earliest planned shopping centers in the area and upon its opening on November 2, 1959, the largest retail area in Redlands, costing $2 million and housing 20 shops under one air-conditioned roof.[1] Sage's Complete Shopping was the original main anchor, a large supermarket which included a pharmacy and lunch counter.[2][3][4]
In 1967 it added 33,000 square feet to the complex and in May 1970 a 24,000-square-foot (2,200 m2) "Milton's" apparel store, run by Milton Sage, owner of Sage's.[5]
Webb's, a department store from Glendale, California, opened its first branch store here, measuring 42,000 square feet, on August 30, 1973[6] in the Citrus Village shopping center, a small center with 16 specialty stores.[7]
Today, the shopping center is currently anchored by an Albertsons supermarket and Rite Aid pharmacy.[8]
