Walmart plans to move forward with the demolition of the vacant plaza next to Ocean State Job Lot on Spencer Street! The plaza was formerly home to Hancock Fabrics, Subway, and Family Dollar. Only the plaza to the left of Ocean State Job Lot will be demolished, Ocean State will remain open after the demolition.
Walmart originally planned to build a new supercenter on the site of the former Kmart in the plaza. Walmart purchased the land including the Ocean State Job Lot plaza in 2015 for $9.8 million; but shelved plans for their superstore after a lawsuit from ShopRite. The lawsuit was eventually dismissed, allowing the store's construction. There does not appear to be plans to build a Walmart store on the site anymore, the property was listed for sale in September. The land is most likely being cleared to add value for a potential sale. Check out the listing here: https://www.loopnet.com/.../205-Spencer-St.../29659140/
