I mistakenly posted about Head 2 Toe Reflexology opening in downtown Walnut Creek back in June, but that was only the signage. As you can see by the above photo they are definitely open now.

This could have been titled, “Succulent Garden of the Day (Chair Edition)”, but anyway, this cool chair was spotted at the gift boutique Wish on Boulevard Way in Walnut Creek.
The men’s clothing store Atlas on N. Main St. in downtown Walnut Creek that I wrote about back last September is moving to a larger location in downtown Walnut Creek. Stay tuned for the new location… Thanks to a reader for pointing out the For Lease sign.

Back in June I noted that the housewares and gift shop Entrez! Open House was closing in downtown Walnut Creek and now the OC Watch Company, a luxury, pre-owned watch seller will be opening at this location within a couple of weeks.
From their website:
The OC Watch Company specializes in luxury, pre-owned watches and is located in fashionable Walnut Creek. OC Watch Company specializes in buying, selling and trading high-end watches.
The OC comes from the owner, Kyle O’Connor’s last name. Kyle and his associates have over thirty years in the watch industry. Their knowledge is evident in the variety and quality of the time pieces for sale.
At OC Watch Company you receive a personalized shopping experience with Kyle as a guide to help in choosing the perfect watch to add to your collection.
Located in one of the best spots on Broadway Plaza right near the fountain, Brighton Collectibles is temporarily moving to the backside where AZN Jewelers used to be, across from See’s Candies in order to remodel their store. The grand re-opening will be on September 27th.
Temporary location:
Back in June I noted that the Twigs Floral & Art building was going to be demolished in Lafayette, and as you can see in the photo above it’s now gone, with only a lonely corner section standing for now. From this vantage point you can see straight through to Chow, although the parking lot that this will be turned into is meant for the Cooperage Grille, opening in November.
A couple of days ago I noted that a new Peruvian restaurant called Mochica will be opening as well as the indoor dog space Zoom Room opening this Saturday at the Avalon Apartment Complex in Walnut Creek. I thought I would point out the other shops in this area. Allstate, a workplace by the hour store called Third Workplace, and a Starbucks round out the remaining shops.
Back in April I posted a question as to whether the beloved Dome movie theater in Pleasant Hill should be demolished and it turns out that it was demolished a couple of weeks later, to be replaced by a 2 story Dick’s Sporting Goods store. I dropped by recently and this is what it looks like now. Of all the stores that could have replaced the dome isn’t it appropriate it will be replaced by a store named Dick’s?

The indoor dog space Zoom Room is opening a new location in Walnut Creek on August 3rd, where the Avalon apartment complex is located, right across from the Pleasant Hill BART station. From their website:
The day’s events will include $5 Intro to Agility classes throughout the day followed by a fabulous free party starting at 4pm. Come and enjoy our complimentary ice cream sundae bar, refreshments, homemade doggy donuts, a photo booth big enough for 10 people (or dogs!), a dog tricks contest and a raffle with wonderful prizes. We’ll even fire up our Doggy Disco® light show! This is truly one of those cases where “the more, the merrier” applies, because for everyone who registers and attends our event, we’ll make a $10 donation to Rocket Dog Rescue: saving dogs from death at over-crowded shelters and finding them loving, happy homes!
