Lowes was considering that site before the recession. Also would make a stop at F&M of course for some discount toothpaste!There was also a lumber yard at 8 Mile and Merriman called American Lumber, the building was painted white with red and blue stripes. It is now the site of a drug store [[like we need one on every corner).
