This store was built in 1995, and just like the one we looked at on the other side of the street, all is not quite as it seems -- though it's a lot less obvious this time. This store was originally built as a QFC, but was fairly short lived as it appears H Mart opened in 2006. I'm not sure how much of the exterior design here is as QFC left it -- this would have been a very strange looking QFC, but seeing as H Mart left quite a bit of the interior as is, and seeing as this store, at 55,000 square feet, was absolutely
massive by QFC standards at the time, I'm guessing that it is largely original to QFC. (Historic aerials also appear to show that this building hasn't changed much over the years.)
