I've totaled up most of the chain stores in NC (wish I was using ESRI's Business Analyst to be sure this is all!)  and I'll post a chart with the totals.  Without including drug stores I've got 2089.  That's a lot of parking lots to cover!  (I'll get busy analyzing soon.)  The heavy pavers are Food Lion with 853 stores (just NC!) Walmart with 168 stores in NC, Harris Teeter with 144 stores in NC and Lowes Home Improvement with 114 stores in NC.
