Thanks to those who emailed that the “spiritual and magical marketplace”, The Mystic Dream, formerly known as Dolphin Dream, closed their physical shop in downtown Walnut Creek. They do have plans to reopen in a new location eventually and for now you can shop their online selection here.
From their Facebook page:
We are thinking of this as our phoenix-phase, and we shall return stronger and brighter than ever. We have no intention of leaving the Bay Area permanently but have definite plans to reopen in a new location once it becomes feasible to do so.

Thanks to a reader for sending word that The Natural Mattress Store closed in Walnut Creek, next to Whole Foods.
The consignment store Main Street Rags is relocating within downtown Walnut Creek to a spot next to Lettuce, at 1561 Civic Dr, according to a sign in their window. Look for a mid July opening.

Thanks to a reader for sending word that Everything But Water, which opened almost four years ago in downtown Walnut Creek, is no longer listed on the Broadway Plaza directory. It’s not listed on the company store locator either, so considering it’s empty inside, it looks like this is permanently closed. Considering how many stores haven’t opened yet and are even boarded up, it’s difficult to determine whether a store is actually closed these days.

Only a couple of weeks ago the Apple store at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek was boarded up with few people to be seen. As I checked out the area this week, I was amazed by the huge lines on both sides of the Apple store with temperature checks being done and mandatory mask wearing while in line. I guess people really love their Apple gear!
Plaza Escuela, Walnut Creek
Last October we learned that Forever 21 was expected to close at Plaza Escuela in downtown Walnut Creek, and that time is now, with 60% – 80% off the entire store. When I dropped by yesterday, there was quite a line to get in. Not as long as the line to get into Apple, but it did wrap around the corner.
