Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
Thanks to a reader for pointing out that New Zealand-based men’s retailer Rodd & Gunn is coming to Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek. Note that the photo above may not be the space they will be in. (Industrious will have a staircase in one of those spots.) Check out their online selection here.
From their website:
The Rodd & Gunn heritage dates back to 1946, when the brand’s first trademark logo – the English Pointer – was used on a boutique line of New Zealand made shirts.
In its current form, the brand was established in 1987 when the first stand alone store opened in Auckland’s Queen Street.
Rodd & Gunn is synonymous with quality, while taking its inspiration from New Zealand’s picturesque landscape. Rodd & Gunn’s philosophy is to create classic garments imbued with contemporary style and designed to stand the test of time.

Moraga Shopping Center
The signage for the new Chase bank is up at the Moraga shopping center. What I find funny is that the parking lot is going to be bigger than the bank itself. Do they really expect so much traffic at this location?
