Walmart announces it will finally break ground on new E. Sprague store
We asked recently when Walmart would get around to breaking ground on a new store in Spokane Valley.
In March 2010 the company first announced it had plans for the store, west of the Costco at 5200 E. Sprague. Our first story said:
Walmart says it will square off with Costco Wholesale Corp. in the Spokane Valley.
The Bentonville, Ark., retail behemoth announced Thursday it will build a 151,000-square-foot retail center on a parcel of land due west of Costco’s store at 5601 E. Sprague Ave.
Jennifer Spall, the Bentonville company's director of public affairs and government relations, said: “Walmart plans to break ground this November on its new full-service store in Spokane Valley. A specific ground-breaking date has not yet been set. Construction will be completed approximately 12 to 14 months after ground-breaking.”
