WalMart Building Soon in the Neighborhood

And the bad news follows the good:

The Bellevue Reporter announced the news last month: WalMart comes to Factoria.  Be sure to scroll down to the bottom for comments.  It will be in the Mervyn's at Factoria Mall, just down the street from our gathering space we built last summer.

Interesting fact:  the markings left by the old Mervyn's sign are called labelscars.

i love learning there's a term for those visual vestiges of old signs - labelscars - perfect!

i wonder how many feel that walmart will be a scar on the landscape of factoria....

Hi mouse! Quite a few (feel WalMart will be a scar), judging from the angry comments. So great to be back and see you here again.
