While Steve says the store will be "closed forever," in the next paragraph he quotes H.E.B. as saying the store needs "extensive renovations."
It's obvious to anyone knowledgeable in retail that the Brownsville H.E.B. stores are incredibly profitable, having paid for their infrastructure many times over, raking in multi-millions from Hispanics in South Texas.
While the downtown store's dollars per order are smaller than Boca Chica or Ruben Torres H.E.B., it is not losing money and is only a second story away from being a viable part of downtown Brownsville's development for years to come.
But H.E.B. execs, like those of other large corporations, simply push pencils, look at numbers. They understand nothing about revamping or maintaining a historic downtown.
They understand nothing about Brownsville.
What a pity!
You're on your 70s. Of course you think things stay the same forever. smh
ReplyDeleteSince ICE has not deported or detained one white illegal immigrant, which there are 600,000 of ... can we admit this is about race?
ReplyDeleteYou still haven’t commented on the petition to remove Erasmo Castro Jr. You still haven’t commented on the DWI charges. You still haven’t commented on if Erasmo Castro Jr. should be a trustee where your grandkid goes.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity!
What an idiot. Trump played dumb about his campaign's connection with the Russians in 2016 to get information over a rival....and then he turns around and seeks help AGAIN from another foreign country. This time using extortion tactics. Un-freaking-believable! He and Barr should do the country a favor and resign - because their corruption is off the charts - and they should act like men and do the honorable thing. (but of course, we are talking about "honor" - something neither Trump or Barr possess). So let's go.
ReplyDeleteBen Neece's district. This will cost him the next election. Should have been aware and done something about it. Fool.
ReplyDelete"Pardon me. Are you, by any chance, Mr. Wightman-Cervantes?" The researcher peered over his glasses, smiled and then smiled more broadly. "Jim Barton? Mean Mister Brownsville?" Extending his hand: "Call me Bobby." He gestured toward the vacant chair across the table from him. "I've read your new blog. It's developing nicely."
ReplyDeleteLOL
On, Trump, it's going to be increasingly difficult for these guys to defend all of the blatant obstruction and obfuscation that will be brought into the light as this moves forward. This is why Nixon walked......But Trump will sit there until they haul his blubbery ass out the door.
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck does Baptist have to do with any of this?! If he were Muslim (or any other religion for that matter) would you be pointing that out, as well?
ReplyDeleteKeep going Rudy Giuliani keep going your help in nailing the fat traitor is much appreciated! The Republicans are reaping what they've sown. They enabled this administration in their greed and madness for power. They deserve everything bad that happens to their party. And it's their own fault.
