WeWork’s ground-up project in Bentonville, Arkansas, which was announced in April, is an outlier in the company’s portfolio of properties. The company has been working on a new campus for more than two years, and it will be built at its current location near downtown Dallas. The company is taking all of the office space in a downtown development and will also play a part in picking tenants for its retail space. Slade declined to comment on if WeWork and Walmart will have any direct involvement with each other in Bentonville. Walmart, whose HQ is nearby, is the main draw to the town; the retailer encourages its vendors to locate there to build strong relationships.
