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?

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.

Thanks to everyone who emailed that Sur la Table is closing at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek. They expect to close at the end of March, possibly sooner if they sell out. Not too long ago, downtown Walnut Creek had four dedicated kitchen stores, Kitchen Table, Le Creuset, Viking and Williams-Sonoma. Sadly, only Williams-Sonoma will remain, although there is a nice kitchen section at David M. Brian in the basement.

Thanks to a reader for pointing out that the jewelry shop Banter by Piercing Pagoda is coming to Broadway Plaza where NYX Cosmetics used to be, next to Macy’s. Check out their online selection here. Looks like they may offer piercings as well.

Within a couple of weeks of closing at their original Broadway Plaza location, Crate & Barrel has reopened on the first floor of the former Neiman Marcus building, on the other side of the Apple store. Although only one floor, it feels very spacious. I wonder where they’ll relocate permanently?
