From Wikipedia:
Kmart, formerly legally registered as Kmart Corporation, now operated by Transformco, is a department-store chain and online retailer in the United States and its territories. It operates four remaining Kmart big-box department stores — three in the US Virgin Islands and one in Tamuning, Guam. The company closed its last big-box store in the mainland United States in 2024. A smaller location remains open in the former Garden Shop of its Kendale Lakes, Florida (Miami postal address) store, while the adjoining big box building is occupied by another retail chain that has leased the space.
Before 2018 Kmart owned and operated a much larger chain of Kmart stores. The company is headquartered in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, United States. The company was incorporated in 1899 as S. S. Kresge Corporation and renamed Kmart Corporation in 1977. The first store with the Kmart name opened in 1962 in Garden City, Michigan. At its peak in 1994, Kmart operated 2,486 stores globally, including 2,323 discount stores and Super Kmart Center locations in the United States. From 2005 through 2019, Kmart was a subsidiary of Sears Holdings Corporation, which owns Sears. Since 2019, Kmart has been a subsidiary of Transform SR Brands LLC, a privately held company that was formed in 2019 to acquire assets from Sears Holdings.

Most of the street views I used were historical as I tried to capture the images that actually showed the K-Mart stores in them. Most of these sites are different stores now, but some are empty lots and a few are closed K-Marts which sit empty. I got the list from Malls and Retail Wiki. Here is the list:
