Environment:

Target wants to be “green” and that’s a good goal. But if you have a massive distribution complex thats ready to be operational, isn’t it a terrible waste of energy and natural resources to tear down a perfectly good building? What about tearing up all that asphalt, what about all the mercury in the florescant light fixtures, what about the mechanical systems, the cement and all the wasted material that goes to the landfill in trucks along our busy streets?

 

Looks of the property:

Target says they are community sensitive. If that’s the case I’m sure they will do a nice face lift and landscaping of the existing facility to put it in harmony with our neighborhood. Lighting for the warehouse can still be updated to minimize lights and landscaping can be amazingly effective in cutting down noise. Won’t Target be a good neighbor to us if they have to settle for the distribution center?
