Unfortunately, this is how it is in most towns now. I'm old enough to remember when businesses were in storefronts and "blended" into the design of the area. In order for Walmart to build in one of the mountain towns out here, they were required to abandon the warehouse look, use materials approved for local commercial buildings, and do extensive landscaping. Despite all of that, it's still easily recognized as a Walmart.

Yeah, but you know - it's clean!

Grace, good call. We are blessed to live in a clean town.
Vee, these days one must go to the perimeter of the town in order to “go to town.”
