If it is true there must be some serious competition to pay rent on a second location like that.
There is an old Albertson's in College Station that was vacant for quite a while and there were all types of rumors about it before it eventually was bought by Walmart which was next door. Walmart needed a bit more space when they were turning the store into a super Walmart. As crazy as it sounds they knocked out a back corner of the grocery store building to accommodate the construction on the Walmart.
As of last time I was in town it is now a trampoline place.
