Wal-Mart seeks to expand at South Iowa Street by replacing the Payless site with a renovated store, while zoning changes are reviewed for retail use. The plan includes traffic upgrades at 34th and Town, removal of a hazardous frontage road, and a market study claiming Lawrence can absorb 500000 more square feet of retail space, including 100000 new grocery feet. Local grocer pressure fears overstore concerns and potential impact on existing stores.
