    You guys still have Walmart? They ran our local stores out of town, then closed up shop themselves citing high theft. Now all that’s left is a 140,000 sqft husk of a store front that no business is interested in occupying and no one wants to pay to tear down

      I’ve always thought big empty buildings like that would be a sick space for a community market

        Great idea! Community market with plenty of space for educational opportunities for the community. Even space for a cafe or two. Build our own Third Places. Parking lots are already there too most of the time.
