					<p>Big-box home improvement retailers Lowe&#8217;s and The Home Depot each recently opened warehouses in the Houston area to help meet demand for building materials following Hurricane Harvey, <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a style="color: #ff0000;" href="http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Home-Depot-Lowe-s-expand-storage-capacity-in-12254354.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reports the<em> Houston Chronicle</em></a></span>.</p>
<p>According to the newspaper, Lowe&#8217;s signed a lease on a 244,000-square-foot warehouse near Bush Intercontinental Airport, and Home Depot leased a 300,000-square-foot space northwest of the city.</p>
<p>The retailers operate a combined 72 stores in the area.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><a style="color: #ff0000;" href="http://www.hardwareretailing.com/houston-retailer-regroups-as-hurricane-harvey-weakens/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hurricane Harvey</a></span> made landfall in Houston on Aug. 25 , and according to the <em>Chronicle</em>, 136,000 homes were flooded during the storm.</p>
<p>Lowe&#8217;s and Home Depot started stocking and distributing from the new warehouses last month, and the companies say the warehouses will stock building materials like drywall and flooring, the newspaper reports.</p>
<p>Tuffli Nguyen, a Houston resident and recovery volunteer cited in the article, says the items needed for recovery aren&#8217;t easily found in general big-box stores, like Target and Walmart.</p>
<p>&#8220;Things like Sheetrock and face masks, they&#8217;re staples to recover from the storm,&#8221; he says. Nguyen notes that he has spent more than $1,000 at home improvement stores on cleaning and building supplies.</p>
