With the loss of this Kmart in spring 2019, the entire Pittsburgh market is now without a single Kmart store. In fact, the closest Kmart stores to Pittsburgh still operating are Leechburg or New Castle. Kmart owned this location, which likely explained why this store was the one that lasted longer than other Pittsburgh stores. At least the future of this building has a known purpose, something of which cannot be said for other old locations. It will serve as a home of U-Haul storage facility since U-Haul bought the property. Not really exciting, especially since this is part of a shopping center, but its something at least.
This is one of two or three Kmart locations I've visited to use the old auto center as a makeshift garden shop. This one, however, had Kmart's drive-thru auto center which honestly was pretty neat to see in person. This store was the only location I've personally been too to have the drive-thru feature.
