Heard WMNM going in at NW corner of 36th Ave. and Rock Creek Road.... Anyone else heard that?

Probably will happen about the same time the new east side Walmart on Hwy 9 goes up. :-P
If you are refrencing the property by Perfect Swing, that is owned by LOWE'S
I don't think anyone has provided any documented proof we can view on here. All "inside source" type of information that we can't verify since we aren't "in the know."
Yeah NE or SE corner would make more sense. At least it is safe to assume they are talking about 36th Ave NW...instead of 36th Ave NE. I think some people forget that there are pairs of nearly all the numbered streets in this city.
I was told this weekend the new Neighborhood Walmart would be at 36th & Tecumseh. I sure hope not. I don't want another Walmart in my neighborhood!! Has anyone else heard? I'm so sick of Walmart. Why can't we get stores like Central Market that's down in Texas? It blows away Whole Foods in my opinion. I'm sure it's because of our liquor laws.
36th Ave. NW and Rock Creek Road. NE corner for Wal-Mart Neighborhood Grocery
. Most of the construction happening at Tecumseh Road right now are buildings for medical professionals.
I can confirm that this is definitely happening. It will be on the NE corner of NW 36th Ave. & Rock Creek. As a west side resident that hates negotiating the traffic on Robinson to get to Target, WalMart, homeland, etc., I'm very excited about having a Neighborhood Market closeby. The westside needs more grocery options, IMHO.
Yes it will be handy and nice because the west side needs more options, but I am not happy that it's Walmart. I'm so tired of Walmart. They've brought a lot of jobs to our state, but I miss having true grocery stores to go to. I go to other states and they have real grocery stores that are nice and clean and takes you back to what is was like when we were kids going to the grocery store. Now it's just going to Walmart. Nothing special about that whether its their superstore or neighborhood markert!
I agree that we really don't need another Walmart market or another low-cost grocery store in general. We already have Walmart, Homeland, and Wright's IGA.
What Norman needs is a Sunflower Market, a Whole Foods, a Trader Joe's, a Central Market, an Uptown Grocery. I'm very disappointed that the next two grocery store options will be Crest Foods (home of Rock Bottom Prices) and Walmart Neighborhood Market. It's just more of the same, and it seems like it may reduce the likelihood of something better coming along.
If you have lived in other places around the country, you have seen that the options are far different (usually far better)...
Sunflower Market is goint in the Downtown Shopping Center in the space vacated by OU
next to the liquor store
I hesitate to say this--on account of it has something to do with violating the principle of "not judging a book by its cover"--but there just seems to be an inherent veracity connected with anyone hip enough to monikerize themselves as "JimTrabersColostomyBag".
Having said that, Post #19 is Poetry.
(i agree with the satire. it is satire . . . ain't it?)
Very happy to see something being plugged into the former HL on Main. Even happier it is not a lower end establishment. There are more than enough of those along that stretch. Helps to offset the eh factor of the Dental Depot replacing the dead Grandy's building.
Now, if only someone who knows how and wants to operate a food house would take on the old Carl's.
