Since then several permits have been issued for interior and exterior tenant improvements. In the 1970s and 1980s, the subject building was occupied by child welfare offices. In 1994, Northgate Gonzales Market began occupying the site. The same year, Northgate Market received approval of a conditional use permit for a Type 20 ABC license to allow the off-premise sale of beer and wine. On March 9, 2015, Northgate Market received approval of CUP No. 2015-04 to upgrade from a Type 20 ABC license to a Type 21 ABC license in order to distilled spirits for off-premise consumption, in addition to its existing beer and wine sales. Northgate Market remained in operation at the location until the end of 2022 and the tenant space has remained vacant since. Northgate Market transferred their Type 21 ABC license in November 2022 to their new location at 2603 W. Westminster Avenue. Ole City Market is a supermarket chain with four locations in Los Angeles County. The company’s origins trace back to 1998 with the establishment of Villa Market in Long Beach. In 2003, the company expanded by acquiring Best Bargain in Inglewood, a 25,000-square-foot market that originally opened as an Alpha Beta in the late 1960s. The establishment is dedicated to providing competitively priced, high-quality goods in a convenient and welcoming shopping environment. Product offerings include fresh produce, meats, seafood, deli items, frozen foods, groceries, beverages, and a selection of beer and liquor.
