Haha, I know right? And I'm speaking as someone who doesn't own a car but has rented a truck before to pick up lumber. No way you're gonna street park that and carry hundreds of pounds of building material down the block or navigate up a steep parking garage. I know this because I've tried.

The Lincoln Park or Manhattan stores are rare exceptions. There's enough population density where they can justify a lite store format to be profitable Their building material section is like the size of my condo and is for the smallest of remodeling projects.

Please no one suggest curbside pickup. I wouldn't trust anyone who would just deliver a warped stack of 2 x 4's.
