The jeans shop 7 For All Mankind has closed in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek. Considering this is located next to Lacoste which recently closed to make room for a Tesla showroom it looks like this may be used by Tesla as well.
For jeans there is still Lucky Brand and True Religion right around the corner where the fountain is.

Back last August I noted that the electronic cigarette shop Just e-Cigs opened on Cypress St. in downtown Walnut Creek and they have now closed.

Back in October I noted that Jos. A. Bank was coming to downtown Walnut Creek on N. Main St. where Day One used to be and the signage is up now. They also have a downtown Lafayette location on Mt. Diablo Blvd.
In time for Valentine’s Day, See’s Candies has relocated within Broadway Plaza where The Walking Company used to be directly across from Neiman Marcus, next to Starbucks and Lucky Jeans.
Back in October I noted that True Religion Jeans was temporarily relocating in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek due to the redevelopment plan and the signage is now up in their new location across from the fountain and a few stores away from Lucky Brand Jeans.
The home decor store Filthy Gorgeous is vacating their cozy Broadway Plaza location next to Boudin Bakery and is having a 50% off sale. Not sure where they’re moving but I hear Danville is a possibility.
