Saying that the decision was not made lightly and only after a thorough review process, Walmart spokesperson Felcia McCranie told the Pittsburgh Business Times that its Waterworks Mall location had been underperforming in recent years.

Walmart opened its location at Waterworks almost 20 years ago, at what was formerly Ames and before that, Hills.

The Walmart location is expected to close on November 11, just before the holiday season.

The company said there are 8 other Walmart locations within 20 miles of the soon-to-be closed Waterworks site.
