Does this Albertsons/Kroger have a copper roof?

Another question for the architecture department here: is this indeed copper on the roof of this Albertsons/Kroger? (8745 Spring-Cypress Road, Spring, Texas)
The store was built in 1999 or 2000, but sold to Kroger in early 2002. What is ironic is its "twin" down the road closed and is still abandoned. That one was in a much smaller shopping center, without the copper. Really sad is how it went from being a beautiful store with all the bells and whistles to an eyesore. I regret not stopping in that one when I went to the Jack in The Box there when it was new.
And could this copper be the original roof from August 1990?: http://www.flickr.com/photos/62355920@N00/5022460348/
Looks so new to me.
