Associates, an architectural firm

from records at the Planning Department
office at City Hall.
Note how small the
hospital is compared to the propsed
store. |

The area with the
diagonal lines indicates where the
parking lot will be located. Notice
that the cemetery is being clearly
encroached upon by the store. |

small the Bank of Whitman is compared
to this monstrosity. |

This is a closer
view of the parking lot. Notice relatively
small access road for the parking
lot. How can this road support 11,000
trips per day (a figure that Wal-Mart
estimates, not us). |

Observe the walls.
The design of this lot requires very
dramatic changes to the landscape
to be implemented in order to support
the enormous 1,000 car parking lot.

This is a closer
view of the store. Observe that it
uses two large truck turn around areas
which have been placed in close proximity
to the cemetery. |

The Wal-Mart location
clearly encroaches on the city cemetery |
|
Pullman City Cemetery
is where many of Pullman's residents
have loved ones buried. It is extremely
close to the location of the 1000
car parking lot that Wal-Mart wants
to build.
|
|
Fairmont road leads
to the cemetery. Wal-Mart intends
for this to be a part of how they
will handle the increased traffic
of 11,000 trips to Wal-Mart per day. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
| |
From
Grand Avenue, you can clearly see
the Wal-Mart location towering over
Pullman. |
|
The
Wal-Mart location will tower 60 feet
above Bishop Boulevard. |
|
From
Lincoln Middle School, the Wal-Mart
location is clearly visible. There
is concern about traffic displacement
onto the streets near the middle school. |

Very nice new luxury
homes are being developed with an
excellent view of the 29 acre Wal-Mart. |
|
Safeway, Les Schwab,
Rite Aid, and others are tiny in this
photo, yet they are all fairly large
locations. The Wal-Mart store will
make them appear on the scale of a
doll house. |
|
A view from the hill.
New luxurious homes will be able to
see clearly the building and parking
lot. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
|
 |
|
|
| |
Neighboring
shopping centers will be absolutely
dwarfed by the enormous store location.
|
|
Many
of Pullman's retail locations will
be able to fit into the parking lot
of the location alone. How can this
possibly help to improve our economy?
It is likely that many businesses
will fail, creating a localized monopoly
for Wal-Mart. |
