The store closings are continuing apace in Broadway Plaza and this time Häagen-Dazs, located next to Macy’s has exited. With winter approaching I imagine this is probably as a good a time as ever for an ice cream store to leave due to the impending demolition and reconstruction of Broadway Plaza sometime after January.
1360 Mount Diablo Blvd, Walnut Creek
Thanks to a reader for sending word that Wells Fargo has closed at the corner of Mt. Diablo Blvd. and N. Broadway located diagonally across from Nordstrom in downtown Walnut Creek.
1499 N. Main St. is the closest location:

Back in August I noted that Victoria’s Secret was moving a few stores down in Broadway Plaza and the move is complete. They are now open in the former Bath & Body Works location. This location is significantly smaller than their previous location but keep in mind this side of Broadway Plaza will eventually be demolished in a couple of years so they may reopen in a larger store after the Broadway Plaza remodel has finished.
Old location:
This Macy’s Christmas window display in Broadway Plaza has been up well before Halloween and a reader writes in:
It is all Christmas and has been like that for two weeks now. Can you get a photo of it and do a poll to see how many folks think it is too early seeing that it is before Halloween AND Thanksgiving?
So do you think it’s too early for Christmas window displays? If so, what’s the best time to start displaying?

Here comes the brilliant sequel to REP’s hilarious and stylish sold-out hit, Boeing-Boeing. It’s 10 years later, Robert and Bernard are happily settled down, but the shenanigans continue in what many consider to be the most brilliant bedroom farce of all time.
“Hurtling along at the speed of light, Marc Camoletti’s breathtaking farce is a near-faultless piece of theatrical invention.”
– The Guardian
“A nifty farce about double adultery and gourmet cooking.”
– Sunday Times of London
