The Aldi looks essentially brand new, the CVS looks quite new.
I have seen Aldis that are not "the typical block design" including a couple of the ones closest to my house. Aldi just wanted to "plug and play" an existing design they already had on file because it was cheaper and easier for them and nobody cared enough to worry about it.
I also want to emphasize that I don't know anything about who owns all these properties. Maybe it's a lot of individual people that don't care about looking like a community. It all just looks like the far-flung suburbs, cut, paste, drop down, move on. I had hoped that the more established parts of OKC would think about things a little differently. But it's not my fight.
Now my rant is really over LOL.
