Can someone explain to me why the pet store doesn’t just go over to THAT corner instead?
Comment by mt7 — 9:49 am July 27, 2007 #
Because the burnt out shell of a building is too upscale for Petco.
Comment by joel thornton — 2:51 pm July 27, 2007 #
That place needs some major remodeling soon or else it will start to look like downtown White Center..I am shocked that no condo developers bought that area out yet..
Comment by Jiggers — 7:00 pm July 27, 2007 #

Isn’t that lot way too small for a Trader Joe’s (or a Petco)?
