As we were first to report way back in January of 2014, Sam's Club will be building a 140,000 square foot new store on the northwest corner of N. May Avenue and I-44 / 39th Street Expressway. This is the location of the former Lynn Hickey Dodge.

This area of NW Oklahoma City is seeing a lot of attention from retailers of late, with Winco Foods purchasing a site less than a mile to the west, and OnCue Express set to construct a new location just a few blocks to the south.

5-12-14: Building permit application for 140,000 square foot structure
3-20-15: Building permit finally issued
