HD Unique 3 Level Walmart Sam's Club in Dallas, Texas Lake Highlands Timber Creek Crossing

This is defiantly not your typical Wal-Mart or Sam's Club. At the border of Lake Highlands and Vickery Meadows in Dallas, Texas is where you can find this 3 level Wal-Mart/Sams' Club combination. This is at a development called Timber Creek Crossing. As you can see, there is a three level parking garage in front of the structure. On the bottom level of the garage is Sam's Club and a Sam's Gas Station. The second level is parking and you can see into Sam's Club and the third floor is Wal-Mart Supercenter. You will also see the escalators and the cart escalator. There is also a JC Penny at this location. Land is scarce in this part of Dallas, hence the 3 level store combination. This was a ghetto apartment complex before the redevelopment.

Is the JCPenney one level or two levels?

@CaltecCenter I haven't been in the JC Penny but I asked a lot of people who have been and everyone said it is one floor.

I never saw anything like that 'special elevator' before..andnever have I saw a Walmart on the 3rd level of a parking garage....very interesting .

@rhymeandreasoning I think it is the first one like it in the lower 48. Land is scarce in this area, so they saved land by stacking them.  Walmart and Sam's Club side by side eats a lot of land plus all the surface parking. The Walmart opened last Wednesday August 17,2011 and Sam's Club will open September 8.

@020808 I live in Montreal, Canada..I showed a friend of mine your video, and she told me that out in Alberta they have the elevator thing..I have never personally seen one ever, and there are definitely none here in Montreal....Why is it that land is scarce? I am almost scared to know what the answer will be.

@rhymeandreasoning It is a highly developed area and there is not any empty land. Every time they have to build something new in this area they have to tear something down. This Walmart/ Sams Club replaced an apartment complex. This is in City of Dallas in an area where they land is all used up. Out in the suburbs they have plenty of land.

Very Similar to the newish Whole Foods a few blocks away on Greenville Ave in the Park Lane development. There are stores below, but they face the rear of Whole Foods onto a streetscape

This area is very population dense for a sunbelt city like Dallas. Not in dense in the traditional European or even Northeastern US tradition, but more because of tens of thousands of garden style apartments, traditional neighborhoods and millions of square feet of retail.

There is little land because this is near the inner-core of Dallas. The area was first developed nearly 30 years ago and Dallas-Fort Worth has been one of the fastest growing major metropolitan areas in the United States every decade since then. Between 2000 and 2010, Dallas-Fort Worth added more than 1,000,000 residents.
