Earlier this year, we learned that the clothing store Madewell would be relocating a couple of stores down within Broadway Plaza, and they have now reopened. Check out their online selection here. Do you like the previous brick storefront, or the new white one?

Last summer, we learned that the tween centric discount store Five Below would be coming to Willows Shopping center in Concord, and they have now opened. Check out their online shop here. I was able to pick up a cheap pair of dumbbells. 🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️

Oceane Beauty, which opened over five years ago at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek, has closed.

In February we learned that Barnes & Noble, like Häagen-Dazs, would be returning to downtown Walnut Creek, and the window coverings now proudly state “opening summer 2022!”. What’s old is new again, I suppose. And life goes on…

Interesting to see something besides an eatery moving into the former American Kitchen spot as Kimberley Harrison Interiors takes over this prime Lafayette Circle location.
From their website:

Thanks to a reader for sending word that RITUALS, which opened in 2018, is closing at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek. March 27th is their last day, and when I stopped by over the weekend, everything was 50% off.

In October, we learned that lululemon would be opening a pop up at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek where GAP used to be and this spot will remain open while the prime spot on the other side expands to take over the Nespresso (relocating next to Neiman Marcus) and Madewell (who will also expand to a larger spot next to Tesla) spots.

After several years at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek, Amazon Books is closing, not only here, but everywhere. They opened an opportune time, a couple of years after Barnes & Noble closed a few blocks away. And now, in an ironic twist, Barnes & Noble is coming to a new spot in downtown Walnut Creek at Plaza Escuela, where Forever 21 used to be. What goes around, comes around, I suppose! Will you miss Amazon Books at all? I remember when they had a Peet’s cafe, I would get a cheap muffin, and after some browsing, head out to the Capital One cafe a few blocks away for a 50% off drink.
