Mo,<br> <br> My understanding is that property has already been sold, across from Safeway to somebody else. A manager working at Wal-Mart told me it is going in next to the new shopping center on the state line because they were not able to get a second store on the Troy Highway like planned. The original plan was to have a store on the west side of Pullman and a store on the east side Moscow. When that failed, they wanted one in a more central location to get as much of both markets as possible. That makes more sense to me, then to expect everyone to drive out to the west side Pullman of give up the business of all of Latah and lots of Moscow. <br> <br> Best,<br> <br> _DJA<br><br><b><i>Melissa Hendrickson <hend5953@uidaho.edu></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> The Pullman Super Walmart is going in across from Safeway, not just <br>across the border on the
