Was just told by the pharmacy that they aren't going anywhere and not closing for renovation.

In Fort Worth, the store stayed open.

The Neighborhood Walmart will remain open throughout the renovations, which are expected to be completed in mid-August.

There is also an article in the alt news site.

Many more to be affected.

Upgrades at another Neighborhood store:

A spokesperson for Walmart said the renovations include updating the deli department and the online grocery pickup area, adding electric delivery van chargers to the parking lot, installing a new refrigeration system on the sales floor, adding a fresh food cooler in the pet department, remodeling the restrooms, updating the store’s sound system and more.

A two month Reno is a short time period likely reorganizing the refrigerator cases, shelving for better merchandising in some Debts and likely add a Dept that is not represented. Shutting down you can accomplish a lot more than trying to work around an open supermarket. Did many supermarket Renos in open supermarkets up in NY and scheduling is very difficult, particularly keeping it safe and sanitary.

Shutting down for two months and not shutting down while remodeling so posts say. Confusing information but not surprising. It is what it is…

It seem everyone has a option what's going to happen. Time will tell what will happen and for the most part we don't have control whether Walmart closes or remodels
