Wal-Mart Town Center Project Is Missing The Town Center
In North Lauderdale, Florida, a Wal-Mart-anchored town center is struggling to live up to its promises.
"Wal-Mart officials reportedly have told city staff that they haven’t had any luck finding restaurants and stores to move in next door, as they are contractually obligated to do, because 'nobody wants to come to North Lauderdale.'
City leaders are outraged that instead of a Town Center destination site, they could end up with nothing more than a giant Wal-Mart at the former U-Pick farm along McNab Road.
The 43-acre Town Center project — two years in the making — was supposed to feature a 207,204-square-foot Wal-Mart, an 80-room hotel, restaurants and 36,000 square feet of shopping, according to the city."
