It isn't the classic scaffold look-it is in the "White, Bright, and Tiled" look with "Concept 2000" signage. The "Kids R Us" logo is on a truck here, meaning that there was a Kids R Us here too. When I got a book that has to do with Pokemon in some way, I noticed they still had the "R Us" license tag hanging in there.Noahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308528437977653534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33709921.post-10867491871478437712011-03-28T15:08:51.054-04:002011-03-28T15:08:51.054-04:00http://dodgeprojects.construction.com/Toys-r-Us-Ba...http://dodgeprojects.construction.com/Toys-r-Us-Babies-r-Us--SBS-Conversion---Bloomington-IL--Demolition---Illinois_stcVVproductId130795704VVcatId546395VVviewprod.htmUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09458446953248655152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33709921.post-35129131838861554392010-12-14T02:40:06.039-05:002010-12-14T02:40:06.039-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33709921.post-156797798590493712010-08-21T14:19:59.992-04:002010-08-21T14:19:59.992-04:00I saw one near Carlsbad, CA with the brown roof an...I saw one near Carlsbad, CA with the brown roof and green "R".

It is actually next to an abandoned store, Boston Bed and Bath which has been vacant since the late 90's. It is odd, considering the rest of the plaza is thriving, with a new Whole Foods, upscale restaurant, and many other stores.<BR/><BR/>Nicole Nanciel8@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33709921.post-28120504121827821742008-12-03T17:36:00.000-05:002008-12-03T17:36:00.000-05:00I wasn't really able to go into the Waco Toys R Us...I wasn't really able to go into the Waco Toys R Us...the people in the car with me needed to go home too.

Believe you me, I wish I could get down to Waco to get a full account of this gem (as with Montgomery, AL). <BR/><BR/>For the record, if anyone wants to see an amazing interior Toys R Us, check out the Horseheads, NY store or see the pictures on my Flickr. The walls were classically rainbow painted in accordance with TRU and the late Kids R Us with signage in and out! <BR/><BR/>If anyone can confirm or update if they've updated the interior decor as I've not seen it since January 2007.Nicholas M.
