^This. The appeal of new construction has to be weighed against the detractors. The lack of shopping, the Turnpike, no town square, etc.

As far as Walmart goes, it would make more sense in my opinion to staff the existing stores properly before trying to find employees to staff new stores. Checking out of the one in Colony can take 20+ minutes mid day, which is unacceptable. But they no doubt know what they are doing for their bottom line.
