The DMN reports that the Walmart empire is taking over the former Whole Foods and Blockbuster space, replacing it with a Neighborhood Market store that’ll be open to the public in September. Wal-Mart promises to bring 90 new jobs to the area and support community projects, but it’ll also be really, really close to the new Trader Joe’s.

Looks like there’ll be some grocery wars waging in Lower Greenville later this year…

  1. Hipsters don’t hang out in the Lower Greenville area.

  3. Agree with Rangers100. Whatever the real estate broker may have said to the drunk or jet-lagged Trader Joes rep, Lower Greenville ain’t hip.

    That being established,–welcome Walmart! Ordinarily, I despise it, but the Walmart in Uptown is peculiar and, perhaps for that reason, unobjectionable.
