Hi-Way Market
Formerly Cramer's Trading Post


Newspaper Ad, 1951

At 916 Poplar and N. Montana Ave., the Hi-Way Market was a handy stop on the way to Canyon Ferry or Lakeside. The combination market and service station was opened in 1936 by Arthur Cramer as Cramer's Trading Post. Cramer also operated a livestock auction, held south of the market on National Avenue. There was also a small trailer park north of the market.

Jimmy Hopkins and John Smovir took over in 1949. The store closed early in 1970. If anyone has actual photos of the operation, please let me know.
