The Maples IGA actually accelerated their closing due to someone wanting to take over the space. After the store closed there was also construction happening looking like a gut/reno type of setup. That has not happened at other locations that closed around the same time. Perhaps the deal ended up falling through once the state of the building was seen?

In terms of the Future Shop on Pembina, I would not expect much to change. If you did not like it before having the paint colour changed from red to blue is going to do little to solve issues you might have had. As for the size compared to Best Buy at Polo Park, the trend for the chain is towards smaller locations as they have realized they don't need ever model and size of tv on display, instead they show a fewer products and focus more on products with faster sell through rates like cell phones, video games and wearable tech.
