LOS ANGELES — On a block of L.A.'s skid row where the tents cluster corner to corner, there's a store that most people know as the place with a little of everything.
When May and Bob Park took it over in 1995, the store was called Best Market. The Parks tried to stock it all, and if they didn't have it, they were known to drive to the warehouse after hours to get it.
After their son, Danny, joined the business in 2015, he renamed it Skid Row People's Market. It's the latest of many names over the years, and the everything store tries to live up to all of them, stocking food, drinks and items geared toward life outdoors, such as drink mix, tents, cups of ice on hot days, warm socks on cold ones.
