Just wondering if anyone in town sells tanks that have a 36 x 18 footprint? ie something like 36 x 18 x 18 or something to that effect... 33gals are pretty common, just wondering if this size is around...

Any of the reef stores will build it for you.

Oh yeah, that's a reasonably common size. I think 36x18x18 is called a "50g breeder". It's basically a shortened version of the common 65g tank size (36x18x24). You should be able to find it at most LFS's. Every now and again one seems to pop up for sale in the buy/sell forums. Also, if memory serves, Aquarium Enthusiasts had a bunch for sale a couple months ago. Maybe pop a question in their forum (under Vendor forums here on Canreef) and see if they have any left.
