Kmart 4973

Kmart #4973 was a Super Kmart Center discount department store located at 8400 Westheimer Road in Houston, Texas. The store opened on June 26, 1995, followed by a formal grand opening ceremony on June 29. In 2002, the store's parking lot would be the site of a controversial drag racing raid, in which hundreds of innocent people were arrested by Houston police, despite the fact that no racing was taking place. The store ultimately closed on April 13, 2003, and would eventually be demolished for The Home Depot 6558.
