Several critics spoke out against the new business on the Seminole Heights  Patch Facebook page.

"Already have Advance Auto on MLK & Nebraska AND Hillsborough & Nebraska, Auto Zone near Hillsborough & Rome, plus a hundred other auto related businesses," Derek Sassman wrote on our Facebook page's wall. "Do we really need this? I'd rather have a Post Office."

Facebook fan Rebecca Reuben wrote that she'd rather have some other type of store, a restaurant or even the original Post Office back in that location, "but at least NAPA is a well-established, successful business that isn't as big a gamble of it not doing well and ending up as yet another empty abandoned building in Seminole Heights. Just trying to hope for the best."
