Spirit Halloween is coming to Walnut Creek where Pier 1 Imports used to be. According to their website they are open with a 20% off coupon here. What I wonder is, are people really going to go trick or treating next month without an available vaccine? Maybe they feel a scary mask will protect themselves?

GritCycle, which opened earlier this year in downtown Walnut Creek, has closed.
Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
Thanks to everyone who emailed that The Dallas Morning News has reported that Neiman Marcus, which opened in 2012 at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek, has added this location as one of the nine stores to its closing list. It’s expected to close after Christmas. The boarded up windows you see in the above photo were taken over the weekend due to a downtown demonstration.
Thanks to a reader for sending a photo of the Bullman with Bulldog sculpture that has been yarn bombed by Bedford Gallery Docent Adrienne Rogers. Previously masked Bullman with Bulldog photos are here and here.

I’ve received quite a few emails about Scott’s Seafood in Walnut Creek… They look to be closed for the time being, despite indicating they’re open on their Facebook page. If they are planning to reopen once indoor dining is available, why wouldn’t they mention this on their website and social media pages?
From a Facebook Community Post, “We will re-open in both locations when the ban on indoor dining lifts.”
