WAUKESHA - As customers walked into the new Menards Mega Store
during its opening Tuesday, they were greeted by an expansive view
of cabinetry, tools, home decorations and even a piano.
The 240,000-square-foot Waukesha Menards Mega Store is the third
Menards to have two stories. The other two are in the Twin Cities
and a Chicago suburb.
"They couldn’t believe it. They’ve never seen anything
like this before. This is the only home improvement store like
this," Waukesha Menards general manager Mike Pacocha said of
the first customers Tuesday.
A glass elevator and escalators built for people with shopping
carts are two features to get shoppers from the first to second
floor. A baby grand piano stands next to the escalators. A large
variety of items for home and garden can also be found in the rows
of shelves.
