May 31, 2005 -- Clark talks with "Big Box" remodeler and crusader
Clark has been traveling around the country on his 2005 book tour. Hes seen lots of big box stores in his journeys and he wanted to talk to Julia Christensen, a big box building remodeler, on the air. Today, he did. Shes been traveling the country to, trying to find alternative ideas for abandoned buildings left in towns. Her hometown has been through several Wal-Mart constructions and destructions, for example. The first one was torn down to make room for a courthouse, which was a great idea. But other stores sat vacant for years. She said the construction of these buildings is definitely not slowing down. But certain communities really work to reuse these buildings. One town for example built a Spam Museum out of an old K-Mart. Clark thinks its a terrific project, especially because Christensen has no ulterior motives.
