A Wal-Mart with an artistic flair


Did anyone else notice the railway platform/extra-long bus-shelter like architecture on the St. Clair W side of the new Wal-Mart at St. Clair W and Runnymede. It looks like a long railway platform. It doesnt really serve a purpose on that stretch of sidewalk because there is no designated bus stop there. If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time I've seen Wal-Mart attempting to mold their big-box type buildings to fit in with local history.

That's such a cool observation, as I never really thought of it that way. I just thought it was a thoughtful roof to add some protection for pedestrians walking in the rain.
