Walmart Market coming to Somerville

 Not really in Davis Square I know. It's going to be in the old Circuit City location next to Home Depot.

Seems like we have a lot of supermarkets here already. Star, Market Basket, 2 Johnny's Foodmasters, Stop and Shop and Kmart (OK that's a stretch). Also a Whole Foods and a Shaws right on the city lines.

Mystic Avenue is one-way northbound, so I don't see any way to get there from any residential part of Somerville without first going to the intersection of Broadway and Mt. Vernon. Seems a lot easier to just keep going to Market Basket.

Also, this isn't a big-box Walmart, it's just a grocery store.
