Former Kmart #3886

 NOTE: This post comes from outside the blog's coverage area.

    As the second Asheville, NC Kmart location I vistied, this location on Patton Road was a newer typical '90s store. It featured a pharmacy, but it did have a cafe with Little Caesars at one point and sported a rarer decor package. The building is vacant to my knowledge.

    It sure seems that 2025 has not been kind to retail. We've lost Big Lots (on a national level) and Party City. Forever 21 appears to be joining the store closing spree too. There's also JO-ANN fabrics, a chain that will soon be a memory. I stopped into my local JO-ANN the other day to see how things are going.
