Yeah, not quite sure why they would put up a brand new building, then buy the one a block away from it.
I'm not sure of their long term plans yet, but it mentioned in the Indy Star:
"Dick's executives expect the Galyans names will come off its 47 stores by mid-2005, months after the merger's expected completion in October. It wasn't clear Monday how many stores would be closed where the two retailers compete in close proximity, as they do in three Indianapolis-area communities, or how many jobs will be eliminated."
Oh hey, good news:
"Dick's intends to weed out Galyans lifestyle items, such as sun dresses, but keep the Galyans rock-climbing walls as it focuses on sporting goods, he said."
