He learned of the development from the concrete contractor at a recent industry meeting in St. Louis. The store is not a SuperCenter, but one of Walmart's smaller market stores built in the past 18 months.
"The now standard Walmart white roof, along with a light colored parking lot and concrete access roads incorporating a concrete roundabout work together to maximize the lighting and heat reflectance of this project," Hansen said. A Google Earth photo of the location is seen at right, along with a front elevation photo prior to the store opening shown here.
