"I'm looking at plans for Walmart’s first local outdoor container park, which will create a huge open-air dining and retail destination by filling approximately 1.5 acres of the existing Walmart parking lot at Eastgate Plaza, located at the intersection of Sunset Road and Marks Street. The two-level, 63,600-square-foot site is planned to include 1,920 square feet for retail stores and 6,620 square feet for containers modified to serve a variety of menus; the current layout calls for pizza, tacos, burgers, desserts, coffee, a large "bar & grill," plus yet-to-be-assigned spaces. The concept, floated nationally since 2018 and similar to a project headed to Loveland, Colorado that promotes a “carefully curated mix of local, regional and national food tenants in an active setting,” with live entertainment, wellness facilities and diverse beverage choices, aims to be the go-to destination for nights out, though a completion timetable has not been revealed." - Bradley Martin
