only BIG FAT OBESE GREASE-LOVING American swine hogs go to shop at Costco. Just look at their carts when they waddle out and pack it into their GIANT SUVs.

I think you are confusing Costco and Wal-Mart, Costco has a huge number of small business owners as shoppers.

Somebody should tell Costco they are missing a rally good opportunity downtown LA. There is all kind of land off Alameda. There are 40,000 people living there now with a average household income of almost $100,000. They are driving to Costco stores in Los Feliz or Burbank now. Both stores are inconvenient and overcapacity. An just imagine the possibility of a Costco with AMPLE parking...

Yeah me too! It was a better time back them.

You remember! Don't forget the giant slide.

Yuck. I really don't think they need a Costco at the proposed site of "the Village." It would be better suited for the Catalina Yacht factory lot. I blogged about this here: http://www.hillsofwoodland.com/2009/11/01/a-p...

yeah, and the ice rink!

why build another costco so close to roscoe and canoga? if they close that one it cancels out more jobs, except to build it. it's like having 2 home depots a few miles apart. oh yeah, there is one at variel and one at fallbrook. can't have too many big box stores, i guess. unless the economy tanks. hmmm, that happened too. i guess having a store close to home is what people want so they can be within walking distance. no? lol that would mitigate the traffic. right mr. zine? as well as adding so many new apartments in the area close to bus lines. we all use those to shop don't we? right.

sigh. the good days of having warner center as agriculture are long gone.
