Drive Revere Street past the 215 interchange right now and you will pass a Wienerschnitzel that has been open long enough to have regulars, a dentist's office with a full parking lot, and then several hundred yards of dirt, silt fencing, and dust-control signage. It looks like one more North Las Vegas corner waiting on its future. It is actually two futures, arriving on nearly the same schedule, a half mile apart.
A Walmart Supercenter and a new Smith's are both under construction near this intersection, and both are targeting a 2027 opening. That is not a typo and it is not two versions of the same rumor. They are separate projects, separate parcels, separate permits, and residents driving this corridor over the next year are going to watch two full-scale grocery anchors rise out of the ground at once.
The Store That's Already There
Context first, because it matters. There is already a working Smith's a short drive north on Aliante Parkway at Deer Springs Way. It is not new, it is not struggling, and nobody is proposing to replace it. One North Las Vegas resident who works in the area has described the existing store as convenient enough that he can handle two locations back to back if he needs to, which is the kind of comment that only makes sense if you already live with this corridor's traffic patterns.
That existing store is the baseline. What is happening now on Revere is additive, not a swap.
Two New Anchors, Same Corridor, Same Year
The Walmart is officially the Revere Supercenter, planned for the northeast corner of Revere Street and West Dorrell Lane. The North Las Vegas City Council approved it, and according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the 175,000-square-foot store is expected to break ground this fall and open in fall 2027. Walmart says the project will bring about 300 jobs, along with a pharmacy, a vision center, and a full-service fuel station.
A few hundred yards away, Smith's is building its own store, this one closer to Tule Springs Parkway. The Review-Journal reports the project carries a $35.9 million budget, runs about 122,000 square feet, and will be Smith's 48th store in Nevada when it opens in 2027. R&O Construction is the contractor, and county dust-control permits already list the project under the internal name Smith's 339, which is a sign the site work is real and already underway, not still on paper.
Here is the comparison as it stands today:
| Walmart Revere Supercenter | New Smith's (Tule Springs Pkwy) | |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 175,000 sq ft | 122,000 sq ft |
| Budget | Not disclosed | $35.9 million |
| Groundbreak | Fall 2026 | Site work underway |
| Opening | Fall 2027 | 2027 |
| Extras | Pharmacy, vision center, fuel station, auto care | Pharmacy, deli, full grocery |
Two anchors, two different formats, one road, one year.
Why Now, Not Later
This isn't retail chasing rooftops that might show up someday. The rooftops are already approved and, in large part, already selling. Regal Tule Springs, the commercial development planned for the northwest corner of the I-215 and Revere interchange, describes itself on its own site as sitting in the middle of the Park Highlands master planned community, which includes the Villages at Tule Springs, Park Highlands West, and Valley Vista. Regal Tule Springs' developers put the surrounding residential total at 8,600 planned units, which is the kind of number that explains why two national retailers are pouring concrete at the same time instead of waiting to see who moves first.
The road network already reflects the plan. Grand Teton Drive, which used to dead-end inside Aliante, now continues straight through as Tule Springs Parkway all the way to Revere. Station Casinos owns land at the east end of that same stretch. A 135-acre parcel near the VA hospital is zoned for a mixed-use, medical-centric development. None of this is speculative anymore. It is infrastructure that has already been built to support commercial square footage that is currently framed but not yet open.
What the Wait Actually Looks Like
For anyone driving this stretch daily, the next year is going to be less about announcements and more about living around active job sites. Not every resident is thrilled about it. One nearby resident has pointed to a park near the interchange that has sat closed for over a year, and to the general sense that more construction means more congestion before it means more convenience.
Others see it differently. A resident quoted by KLAS put it plainly: the area needs more shopping, because too little retail concentrated in too few spots just pushes congestion and parking problems onto the stores that already exist. Mayor Pamela Goynes-Brown has framed the corridor's build-out as the payoff of planning that the city has been working toward for more than a decade.
Both reactions are reasonable, and both describe the same year. Construction dust and lane shifts now, in exchange for two grocery-scale stores and the retail that tends to fill in around them, later.
Why Two Grocers Can Both Work Here
The obvious question is whether a corridor with one Smith's already open a few minutes away can really support two more grocery-scale stores without one of them struggling. The format difference matters here. Walmart's Supercenter model layers a full grocery section under general merchandise, apparel, a pharmacy, and now a dedicated vision center and auto care operation, which pulls in trip types a standalone grocer doesn't compete for. Smith's, as a Kroger-owned banner, is building the more traditional full-service grocery and pharmacy package it has used across its other 47 Nevada locations. They are answering different weekly errands more than they are fighting over the same milk and eggs run.
That distinction is also why this doesn't read like oversupply. It reads like two retailers responding to the same demand signal, the 8,600 planned units around them, and choosing to split the errand list rather than duplicate it.
What to Watch Over the Next 12 Months
For residents already living along this stretch, the practical calendar looks like this. Walmart's groundbreaking is expected this fall, with site work and vertical construction running through 2027 toward a fall opening. Smith's site work is already active under permit, with the same general 2027 completion window. In the meantime, expect the existing Wienerschnitzel and the dentist's office to keep operating as the surrounding pads fill in, and expect the road work around Tule Springs Parkway and Revere to keep evolving as both projects near completion.
None of this changes what the corridor looks like today. It changes what it looks like in about eighteen months, when a resident who currently drives past dirt lots on the way to Aliante will instead have a Supercenter and a full-service grocery store both within a few minutes of home, built at the same time, for the same wave of rooftops that has already arrived.
