I had to go back and read my previous comments, because I posted those a year ago, but the irony here (in addition to what I previously posted) was that the auto center was apparently the part of Sears in the old Bellevue Center that was actually the best performing part of the store (may have taken my car there a time or two), and may have been the linchpin that actually prevented the store from closing for as long as it did, thus holding up redevelopment of the mall for as long as it did. I know that when I worked for UPS, we routinely picked up and delivered at that Sears store, so it must have served as some sort of regional distribution hub at the time (2010-2012).
Contrary to what I posted earlier here, I do not believe that there is any K-Mart store left within a day's drive of me here. The one in Goodlettsville (Long Hollow Parkway at I-65) announced its closing not too long ago, and I believe that the one on Donelson Pike (which I mentioned previously) may now be closing as well.
