With a population of only 6,000 Perth (not to be confused with the one in Scotland or that one in Australia), doesn't have any "Big Box" stores.
Imagine just for a moment if you can; a place where there is no Wal-Mart, no Costco, no Staples or Best Buy.

The Red Hook Stores is a Civil War era warehouse for cotton, jute, coffee and other goods. More recently it was home to a Fairway Supermarket which has since been replaced by Food Bazaar.
Here's a similar view from June 2006 and from another angle on the same day.
This bridge is used for the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76) interchange ramp crossing Big Beaver Boulevard (SR 18) at exit 13. The National Bridge Inventory listed this bridge as being built in 1950. It was built BEFORE Big Beaver Boulevard was even constructed and it appears this bridge was built at least a year or two before it was put into use. This bridge handles 2,000 to 5,000 vehicles a day. It appears the unusual steel truss design was built so that the bridge could cross five lanes of traffic without having columns in the middle. The nearby bridge the Turnpike uses to cross-over Big Beaver is a concrete arched-top design.
The original interchange connected to Norwood Drive (the main road in the area prior to Big Beaver Boulevard opening in the early 1950s) in an unusually long ramp that continued north beside the current Big Beaver Boulevard and looped back around at the current location of Westgate Drive. Eastwood Drive was part of the original ramp for the Pennsylvania Turnpike. We can also see part of the original ramp abandoned now that the trees are cleared out east of Big Beaver Boulevard.

This general store was originally opened in Ogmore Vale in the South Wales valleys in 1880, it remained in the same family until it closed in 1973, it was removed to St Fagans Museum in 1988. It is shown as it would have appeared in the 1920's.
Western Stores was the convenience store division of Conoco (Continental Oil Company) from roughly 1965 to 1982. It was named after a Minneapolis-based Conoco subsidiary called Western Oil and Fuel Company, which had operated service stations under the Mileage and DS (Direct Service) brands until the end of the 1960s.
Western Stores did business in seven Midwestern states. They sold gasoline, groceries and general merchandise, plus they had their own brand of trading stamps that could be exchanged for goods. The earlier logo had the full word Western, replaced with just a stylized W in 1970. The above is a composite of two images from a company catalog.
In 1982 another Conoco subsidiary, Kayo, took over Western Stores and the stores were rebranded to Kayo and Jet. Eventually they would all be rebranded to Conoco as gas stations and convenience stores became one in the same everywhere.

Originally an A&P store, then a Stop-N-Shop, then Giant Eagle. Giant Eagle had expanded the store to add a pharmacy and extra salesfloor space before they opened. Around 2015, Giant Eagle got rid of the boxy sign that had been outside since they opened and gave the store actual signage.
This is one of the few Giant Eagle stores I grew up with. This is the one our family frequented the most. I love this décor, but we all know it'll eventually either close or remodel. I'd say remodel considering how this store still gets decent business for those who don't feel like driving to Maple Heights.

Located in William Street, Brisbane beside the river, the Commisariat Stores of 1829 are reputed to be our city's oldest building still standing. Strangely, it is just down the road from one of the newest, the Star Casino complex.
We're on a little architectural bent today!
History of the Building
In 1824, the Governor of New South Wales, Sir Thomas Brisbane, gave instructions to establish a new penal settlement in Moreton Bay. Re-offending convicts from New South Wales were sent to remote stations to do the most menial labour on a rigidly-set, monotonous and minimum diet. Punishment was the focus of the new, secondary penal stations.
The Commissariat’s primary role was to procure, store and distribute provisions to the military, convicts and colonists. The Commissariat also controlled the supply of hospital requisites and equipment, customs and banking. This stone building, commissioned by Commandant Patrick Logan, was completed in 1829.
In 1839 the costly penal settlement was effectively closed and the bulk of the convict population removed. The Store became a land sales office and then a depot for immigrants unable to be accommodated in the former Military Barracks. A separate kitchen building was constructed in the yard.
In 1860 the building was renamed the Colonial Stores. The first floor was converted into a police barracks, while the ground floor remained a storeroom. An inventory of supplies listed items such as cutlery, paper, candles, police clothing, saddlery and blankets for the Aborigines. Later, a brick storekeeper’s cottage, saddle store, stables and stationery annex were constructed in the yard.
From the mid-1880s the building was converted into sundry government offices and renamed the Government Stores. Various additions were constructed to provide more workspace. A third storey, approached by a gangway from William Street, was added in 1913.
Following renovations in 1978, the building became the headquarters of The Royal Historical Society of Queensland in 1981.

The 390,834 square foot Richmond Square Mall was developed by The Edward J. DeBartolo Corporation in 1966. The original anchor stores were department stores Montgomery Ward and JCPenney along with junior anchor F.W. Woolworth Co. Montgomery Ward later became Sears (now closed) and Woolworth became OfficeMax. Dillard's would be built onto the mall in 1997.
In the late 2000s, the Richmond Square Mall started struggling. It lost Sears in 2013 as well as many of the stores inside the mall. The mall was sold in 2015 to Hull Property Group. In 2016, the mall underwent a major renovation and changed its name to Richmond Mall. The remodel brought new carpeting to the mall, the vacant stores were sealed up, and new signage was installed. While the interior is still largely empty, three of the four anchor store slots are still occupied by JCPenney, OfficeMax, and Dillard's.

Former Walmart in Town and Country (Ballwin), MO. This is a former Walmart with an unusual story...
In the early 1990s, a Super Kmart Center was proposed for this site. The plans were later changed in 1993 for Walmart to anchor the center and for Kmart still have three other chains they owned at the time (Builders Square, OfficeMax, and Sports Authority) be built in the shopping center. Super Kmart bailed on the site due to issues with store hours; the city had voted to ban stores from being open between 11PM and 6AM in the new development. Super Kmart, of course, wanted to run a 24 hour store.
While the Super Kmart had not been constructed or even had construction started, Walmart kept the plans for the Super Kmart store and modified them slightly. The Super Kmart store was planned to be 191,000 square feet while Walmart was 125,000 square feet. The downsized footprint came from removing most of the grocery side from the plans and letting smaller stores be built there. Walmart still kept the two main entrances in the plan (despite not being a supercenter), a canopy along the front, the triangle design above the entrances (just lacking canopies over them), and an auto center that wasn't a drive-thru set-up. The exterior is a weird mash-up between a Walmart and a Super Kmart as a result...
Walmart kept this store open until September 2009 when they moved to a new supercenter store nearby. Walmart's lease on the store did not expire until May 2015.
As of early 2017, the store is being converted into an At Home store and an Amp Up Action Park (indoor go-karts and lasar tag) location.

This store is one of the few supercenter stores closed in the January 2016 Walmart store closing wave. There were 269 stores closed (154 in the U.S.). Of those closings only 12 were Supercenter stores. The closing wave included mostly smaller stores like Neighborhood market and Walmart Express.
This is an approximately 192,000 square foot Walmart store that opened on August 26, 2009. This is the Hartland, Michigan location I'll post the pictures of the closed Bedford, Ohio Supercenter as well within a couple weeks after finishing the Hartland pictures. These and many of my Bedford pictures are currently floating around elsewhere online.
I believe the big box retailers were overly ambitious when they built up at the intesection of U.S. 23 and Highland Road. Due to the recession, a lot of developement due to happen around this intesection never happened. Target doesn't seem to be doing that well either here. Meijer is the only store that looked like it was doing well in the area. Then again, the Meijer locations around here seem distributed weirdly. There are three Meijer stores on Highland Road within 20 miles of each other yet Fenton (a decent sized city to the north) does not have a Meijer. Both Walmart and Target have stores in Fenton though, so I wonder how many people come from Fenton to go to the Hartland Meijer. I also imagine the grocery section at this Walmart contributed to its closure. When I was at this store, I noticed a bunch of grocery items, on the shelves, that were months expired. I doubt Meijer lets that happen as much. Since Meijer is a Michigan based company, they probably have a more loyal following in the area to begin with.

この2軒の建物、1階部分と2階とでは境界線が微妙にずれています・・・。どちらも斉藤さんだから問題ないのかも？
Located : Shinmon-mae street, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto.
A substantial brick commercial premises of three storeys and basement, the former Taylor Heaslop Building was erected in 1889 -1890 as a set of three attached shops. The northwest and middle shops were built for Brisbane chemist Walter Taylor, as an investment. The southeast shop, which is larger than the other two, was built for South Brisbane grocers James and Thomas Heaslop and was a branch of their highly successful People's Cash Store. The three shops were designed by Brisbane architect John Beauchamp Nicholson and were erected as one building, with the street façades of Heaslop's shop distinguished from those of Taylor's two shops.
The land on which the building is located was originally part of a suburban block of just over 16 acres, located at the intersection of the roads to the Logan and to Ipswich, later known as the Woolloongabba Fiveways. This parcel (suburban portion 165, parish of South Brisbane) was alienated by James Gibbon in 1857, and was subdivided into commercial and residential allotments by the late 1870s.
In the 1880s Woolloongabba boomed as both a working class residential district and as a commercial centre, due principally to construction of the rail link from the Ipswich line at Corinda (South Brisbane Junction) to South Brisbane, which opened in June 1884. The main purpose of this line was to bring coal from West Moreton to the ships at South Brisbane, terminating, via a tunnel at Lower River Terrace, in Stanley Street, near the dry dock. However, the main goods yard and passenger terminus was at the western end of the former water reserve at One Mile Swamp, near Main Street between Stanley Street East and Vulture Street, now the site of the Woolloongabba Busway Station. The railway looped across Logan Road through suburban portion 165 to reach the goods yards and passenger station.
In addition, from 1887 a horse-drawn tram service linked South Brisbane to Mount Gravatt via Logan Road and the Woolloongabba Fiveways, and from the 1st of November 1889 the newly opened Cleveland Railway terminated at Woolloongabba. From here passengers continuing on to North and South Brisbane transferred to horse trams.
These improvements to passenger and goods transportation stimulated commercial development at the Woolloongabba Fiveways. In January 1886, title to a small, triangular parcel of land between Logan Road and Stanley Street East, at the Fiveways Corner (subs 1 & 2 of section 1 of suburban portion 165, containing 30 perches) was transferred to South Brisbane chemist and dentist Thomas Watson Thomason. Within a few months, Thomason had subdivided this land into eight smaller commercial re-subdivisions, each with a frontage to both Logan Road and Stanley Street East. At the Fiveways Corner, Thomason established the Five Ways Pharmacy in a two-storeyed timber building. The other seven re-subdivisions were sold by the end of 1886.
In August 1886, Henry Willoughby acquired title to re-subdivision 8 (9.3 perches), and in December 1886 Catherine Taylor, wife of Walter Taylor of Brisbane (likely the Queen Street wholesale chemist, dentist and property investor), acquired title to re-subdivisions 6 & 7 (8.7 perches). In December 1887, title to Willoughby's allotment was transferred to South Brisbane grocer Thomas Heaslop, and in May-June 1889 Brisbane architect John Beauchamp Nicholson called tenders for the construction of substantial brick buildings at the Woolloongabba Fiveways, for Walter Taylor and J & T Heaslop. This appears to refer to the large, three-storeyed brick building at 10-14 Logan Road, Woolloongabba which, when completed, dominated the Fiveways Junction.
Early photographs reveal that at street level on both street facades, the three shops shared a common convex iron awning supported on posts with decorative cast iron bracketing. The middle and northwest shops had cantilevered verandahs on the upper floors, onto which french doors opened. The verandahs had elaborately decorative cast iron balustrading, valances, and brackets. By 1955 these verandahs were removed. Designed without verandahs, the façade of the southeast shop was distinguished by arched windows and greater use of render ornament.
Nicholson developed a successful architectural practice in Brisbane in the 1880s. His notable commissions include: the Princess Theatre (1888 - 1889) at nearby Clarence Corner; the Norman Hotel (1889) on Ipswich Road, Woolloongabba and the Shaftson Hotel (1889 - 1890) at East Brisbane (both hotels possibly erected for members of the Heaslop family); and, in partnership with architect ARL Wright: the Normanby Hotel (1889 - 1890) at Red Hill; Parbury, Lamb & Co.'s Warehouse in Eagle Street (1890) (demolished); Lady Musgrave Lodge, Astor Terrace, Spring Hill (1891 - 1892) (demolished); and Chardon's Hotel, Ipswich Road, Annerley (1891 - 1892) (demolished). Nicholson had designed J & T Heaslop's shop and store in Stanley Street, South Brisbane, erected 1885 - 1887, and later their shop in Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley, erected in 1891. Despite his varied architectural commissions and development interests, Nicholson was declared insolvent in 1891 as a result of the prevailing economic depression.
The Taylor Heaslop building at the Woolloongabba Fiveways was under construction by August-September 1889, when Catherine Taylor and Thomas Heaslop registered easements and encumbrances over a party wall now erected on their Woolloongabba property. At this time, part of Heaslop's allotment was effectively made the property of Catherine Taylor, to accommodate the whole of the middle shop. The building was likely completed in 1890.
The timing was unfortunate. In 1890 the economic boom of the 1880s burst and Queensland, along with the rest of the world, entered a period of widespread economic depression. In addition, the extension of the railway to Melbourne Street, which opened on the 1st of December 1891, bypassed Woolloongabba Station, diverting passenger traffic on the South Coast, Cleveland, and South Brisbane Junction lines to South Brisbane. The Woolloongabba passenger station closed, but the railyard remained the south side's principal goods yard and locomotive depot until the line was closed in 1969.
J & T Heaslop's People's Cash Store had opened in the southeast shop (14 Logan Road) by 1891, but the Taylor's two shops, at 10-12 Logan Road, may have been unoccupied until at least one was tenanted by SH Rawlings, boot importer, from 1892. In October 1893, Catherine Taylor transferred her interest in the two northern shops to James Heaslop, who maintained these as rental propositions. By the late 1890s, Albert M Goodall appears to have taken over Rawlings boot importing business in the building.
Brisbane in the 1890s supported four principal shopping centres: North Brisbane (along Queen, George, and Adelaide Streets); the Fortitude Valley (along Brunswick, Ann, and Wickham Streets); Stanley Street, South Brisbane; and the Woolloongabba Fiveways. Branches of J & T Heaslop's People's Cash Store were opened in each of these centres, and their building at 10-14 Logan Road, Woolloongabba, dominated the Fiveways commercial district.
Irish brothers James and Thomas Heaslop had arrived in Queensland in 1863 with their parents, Samuel and Mary Heaslop, and brothers Samuel, Robert, John, George, and William. In 1865, James and Thomas established a small retail grocery business at One-Mile Swamp (near Clarence Corner, South Brisbane) and by 1900 had created a chain of 'direct importing' stores known as the People's Cash Store. The principal wholesale and retail stores were at Stanley Street, Clarence Corner, and branch stores had been established at the Woolloongabba Fiveways; Melbourne Street, South Brisbane, at the southern end of Victoria Bridge; Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley; Rockhampton; and Charters Towers.
The Heaslops were well known and respected in Brisbane business circles, and were staunch supporters of the Catholic Church. Thomas Heaslop served on the South Brisbane Municipal Council 1888 - 1895, from the inception of the Borough of South Brisbane, and was Mayor of South Brisbane for three terms, 1891 - 1893. He was involved with the commissioning of the South Brisbane Municipal Council Chambers, paid the workmen on the site nearly £500 out of his own pocket when the contractor, Abraham James, absconded in 1891, and officiated at its formal opening on the 1st of July 1892. His term as mayor also encompassed the great floods of 1893, which decimated large sections of South Brisbane, West End, and Woolloongabba.
In 1901 James and Thomas dissolved their partnership. At this time, title to 14 Logan Road (the southeast shop) was transferred from Thomas Heaslop to James Heaslop, giving the latter ownership of the 3 shops at 10-14 Logan Road. James leased 14 Logan Road to Thomas Heaslop (Thomas Heaslop & Co. Limited by 1911). Thomas died in 1911, but his Company continued to operate a branch of the People's Cash Store from James Heaslop's Woollongabba Fiveways building until the early 1920s.
From the 1st of May 1902, Fiveways draper John Edwin Sheppard Evans took up the lease of the middle shop (12 Logan Road) from James Heaslop, and from the 1st of February 1903 he also took up the lease of the northwest shop (10 Logan Road). Evans was no stranger to the locality. In February 1888 he had established a drapery business next door at 8 Logan Road, in premises owned by AR McLeod. By 1900 he was occupying 6-8 Logan Road, and in 1902 - 1903 expanded into Heaslop's building. Together, John Evans Cash Draper and Heaslop's People's Cash Store dominated the shopping centre at the Woolloongabba Fiveways in the early 1900s.
Evans died in 1907, and for some years the business was conducted by his widow, Margaret Anne Higgins Evans, until she sold to George Logan in 1910. As George Logan, Draper, the business was sustained into the early 1920s.
James Heaslop died in 1922, following which his estate passed to his widow, Clara Ellen Heaslop, who from February 1923 leased 14 Logan Road to grocer and hardware merchant John Robertson Blane. Also in 1923, George Logan apparently sold his drapery business to William Johns, who took a lease of 10-12 Logan Road from Mrs Heaslop in March 1923.
In the 1920s, Woolloongabba flourished as a shopping centre, servicing the rapidly expanding eastern and southern suburbs of Balmoral, Hawthorne, East Brisbane, Coorparoo, Stone's Corner, Greenslopes, Holland Park, and Annerley, all of which had electric tram access to North and South Brisbane via the Woolloongabba Fiveways. Many of the earlier shops around the Fiveways were re-developed at this period, including the block opposite Mrs Heaslop's building in Logan Road, but her building continued to dominate, both in scale and landmark value, the Fiveways Junction. It appears that the street level shop facades of Mrs Heaslop's building were remodelled at this period.
In terms of height and street presence, the only building to rival Mrs Heaslop's building at the Woollongabba Fiveways was the Broadway Theatre, a three-storey high brick picture theatre fronting Ipswich Road, just past the intersection with Logan Road, erected in 1923 but destroyed by fire in June 1962.
JR Blane, grocer & hardware merchant, occupied 14 Logan Road until 1928, and Johns & Co., Drapers, occupied 10-12 Logan Road until 1930. Ernest Reid acquired John's drapery business about this time, and also expanded into 14 Logan Road (the southeast shop, formerly Blane's), occupying all three of Mrs Heaslop's shops until 1932. In the midst of the depression of the early 1930s, Mrs Heaslop found it difficult to attract tenants for the Woolloongabba premises following Reid's departure. The shops remained vacant until 1936, when the Moreton Rubber Works, motor tyre retailers who had premises further south along Logan Road, occupied 14 Logan Road as their offices. In the late 1930s, 10-12 Logan Road was occupied by estate agents Five Ways Real Estate & Auctioneers.
Mrs Heaslop died in 1944, and the building passed out of her estate in 1950, when 14 Logan Road was acquired by Frederick Pratt and 10-12 Logan Road was transferred to Mrs Ruby Richards, then to Andrew Lowreys in 1951. In 1953, Pratt also acquired title to 10-12 Logan Road, and the property remained in his estate until 1989.
From the 1950s, the expansion of outer suburban shopping centres had a negative impact on older, inner city shopping districts such as the Woolloongabba Fiveways. The closure of the Woolloongabba Railyards and the cessation of Brisbane's tram services in 1969, and the construction of the Southeast Freeway through Woolloongabba in the early 1970s - which effectively cut the suburb's commercial heart in half - further contributed to the decline of Woolloongabba as a shopping centre. The northern end of Logan Road, where the Former Taylor Heaslop Building is located, is no longer directly accessible from the Fiveways Junction. However, in the last two decades of the 20th Century, this section of Logan Road, which is now virtually a cul-de-sac, was rejuvenated as an antiques, secondhand goods, and gallery precinct. The ground floor of the shop at 10-12 Logan Road, for example, is occupied by a furniture restoration business.

A closed Famous Footwear store...
The University Square shopping center was opened in 2003. Today the shopping center has Target, Macy's and T.J. Maxx / Homegoods (Target and Macy's own the property their stores are on). University Square once featured a Tops grocery store on the bottom level but it closed just a year later in 2006 when Tops closed all their Ohio locations. Retailers such as Jo-Ann Fabrics, Foot Locker, Famous Footwear, and Pier 1 Imports have all either closed or relocated elsewhere. Some spaces in the shopping center were never filled to begin with. Currently (late 2016), only one non-anchor store, T.J. Maxx / Homegoods, remains at University Square, but plans to move to nearby Oakwood Commons. Applebee's also still has a restaurant in the shopping center. Today, there are talks about possible mixed-use redevelopment plans for University Square
The shopping center has five levels of parking and staggered store levels. 1- Access to Macy's and Applebee's, 2- Empty Tops Friendly Market level, 3- Access to Macy's, T.J. Maxx / Homegoods, and Target, 4- just for parking, 5- second level of Target.

JCPenney: opened 1975 - closed 2000
Sears: opened late 2003 - closed 2012
The Eastland Center in Harper Woods, MI was built in 1957 and originally featured a 432,000 sqaure foot Hudson's Department Store. The "J.L. Hudson Co." developed the mall solely as a place for one of their stores to anchor. Over the years other anchor stores were added such as JCPenney (later Sears / now vacant), MainStreet (later Kohl's / demolished for Target), and Montgomery Ward (later Steve & Barry's / now Shoppers World). The Hudson's store later became Marshall Field's and now is currently Macy's (the third level of the store has been closed and the fourth floor is just offices). Today the mall is 1,415,557 square feet.
