Oddly that is the only Home Depot I can stand. And that Lowes on the Bvld is worse than any Home Depot.

I perfer the home depot at castor. I went to the lowes on the blvd once, terrible customer service. I asked where something was, and they gave me a map and told me find it myself.

Where exactly is this location? I ask because I know for a fact that Wal-Mart purchased the land on Aramingo accross from the Shop Rite. I dont know the street but its the land before the public storage place on the same side of the street

It may have sold it because Walmart was vetoed by the neighbors.

that's the spot. I believe the street is wheatsheaf. The tioga pipe property is actually on both sides of aramingo. caddy-cornered from each other.

Can anyone confirm what is going up now on Aramingo across from Shoprite.....is it walmart? Once in a long while I stop at that Shoprite on my way home to Center City from the north and just noticed the construction. Thanks.

My best guess is that its a drugstore. As you know, you can never have enough drugstores in the city.

Aramingo Avenue makes me want to vomit.

It's a huge building....much too big for a drugstore. And your right about the vomit. It was so much nicer when it was lined with abandoned factorys and weed filled lots.

Not sure what that has to do with Aramingo but for the record that new Marshall's is so small I won't waste my time in there again......and Snyder is my regular Shoprite.....I am there every week.
