There's a dead Walmart near me. They and the neighboring stores moved a mile up the road to a new location.
It would be good for municipalities to require shutdown bonds from these big-box outfits. But any town that has the clout to extract that sort of concession from the retailer also has the clout to keep them out entirely, so that's not workable.
Affordable housing? Manufactured housing sites? (meaning indoor trailer parks?) That sort of use might overcome the gross energy inefficiency of these things.
