We have a Trader Joes in Vancouver now, I saw it for myself today and let me tell you I'm happy. It's on the eastside at 205 and Millplain across from Fred Meyer in a hideous strip mall. How could anyone think that auto-dependent strip mall development is a good idea? I had numerous activites on the eastside today and it's like drive to a huge intersection, wait 5 minutes, drive a block to a huge intersection, wait 5 minutes. There a millions of cars. It's just plain ugly.
