Over three years ago the online thrift store ThredUp opened at Broadway Pointe in downtown Walnut Creek. Less than a year later, they relocated a few blocks away to a smaller spot on N. Main. As you can see from the lease sign in the above photo, they have permanently closed. Their online shop remains open here.

In August, we learned that Neiman Marcus, which opened to much fanfare over eight years ago at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek, was expected to close, and that time has come as they are now permanently closed. I’m going to miss those popovers but their San Francisco and Palo Alto locations remain open as noted in the sign below.
