Lakes Region Shopping Plaza??

We have a new Lowes here in FL. It had a “soft” opening Sat. and will have a Grande opening Thursday. I went today and did the garden section “big time”. The employees were very helpful throughout the store. If they didn’t know were it was (outside reflective tape for stairs) she kept asking someone until I had 4 people following us until we found it. (It was in the power tool section??) Part of the training is to shadow another person. This is in part why you see people standing around.
Most of the shelves were full and more stuff was arriving.

In the garden section all the plants were fresh and full. I got some beautiful flowers for my pots. I just hope I don’t kill them.

Yes some of the bathroom fixtures are of a higher quality and price than Home Depot.

The exterior of the build has a Tuscan architecture. It doesn’t look like a big box. The city put the restriction of the exterior. What does the new Gilford one look like?

We enjoy Lowes a lot but I was kind of chuckling after listening to several people who went to the opening night party.It was catered by Appleby's and they were serving mostly fast food stuff like mozzarella sticks and the staff was so overwhelmed that they were telling people it was a 20 minute wait.
The people I talked to just gave up and stopped for a pizza on the way home.My question is.......after spending $85,000,000....why go cheap on the food?
