Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
We knew for a while that GAP would be relocating to the new Broadway Plaza redevelopment in downtown Walnut Creek and they have now reopened in a beautiful two story section on the backside of Broadway Plaza between Nordstrom and Macy’s. It’s much bigger than the previous location and both the outside architecture and inside look great. Plenty of natural light thanks to giant vertical windows that run straight up from the ground floor. Note the comfortable lounge area in front.

Starbucks Coffee has reopened near Macy’s as the backside of Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek has finally opened with quite a few stores including a huge new GAP store, the children’s clothing store Hanna Andersson, Victoria’s Secret, Lucky Brand, Bath & Body Works, See’s Candies, and the clothing store True Religion. It looks like Soma Intimates and Teavana is also open, with Clarks Shoes probably opening this Monday. This is way more than the stores that opened during the first phase back in November when only Kiehl’s and Lou & Grey were initially open. The new buildings are way taller than the last time the backside was open a couple of years ago. How do you like this new section of Broadway Plaza? There are a couple of nice lounge areas and benches.
