Nash's

Nash's was a Pasadena, California-based department store which grew into a small chain. Nash's was founded in 1889 by Hammond G. Nash, who developed his grocery on Colorado Street into a full department store. He continued to open locations in nearby towns:

Alhambra, downtown at 36 West Main Street
Pomona at Indian Hill Mall, later 450 Pomona Mall, the town's downtown pedestrian mall
West Arcadia at the Arcadia Hub shopping center, current site of L. A. Fitness
Whittier at Whittier Quad,, opened 1954
Fullerton at intersection of Harbor Boulevard and Orangethorpe Avenue

The Pasadena flagship was located downtown 250 East Colorado Boulevard, but burned in a 1976 fire and was a total loss. The chain was unable to recover from the associated financial losses and closed entirely.
