Shopping

Back in November when I noted that the baby goods store The Right Start was closing I mentioned that Paper Source would possibly be opening up in April in this location and it’s looking more and more like this is going to happen. Paper Source is definitely opening a store in Walnut Creek in April based on their Jobs page here. Doing a search for zip code 9496 shows they are looking for an Assistant Store Manager, Shift Supervisor and Store Manager.

I had mentioned in September that Sunrise Bistro might be expanding next door where the frame store Art Form used to be, but it turns out that this space is being combined with the now vacant spot to the right, giving whoever moves in plenty of floorspace. Take a look at the inside below:

I would have thought Paper Source would be better off in Broadway Plaza or closer to downtown on the other side, but this location on the periphery makes sense since they needed more space, and jives with their Berkeley location on 4th Street which is also at the end of the 4th Street shopping area. Coincidence? We’ll see…

With all this rain we’ve been having lately I thought it would be appropriate to note that a Liberty Bell kiosk that was not open initially called The Cover Up is now offering up umbrellas and rain gear. Not sure how long the kiosks will remain open after the holidays but this seems like good timing. The Liberty Bell kiosks are located in downtown Walnut Creek where the restaurant Il Forniao is located, across the street from Nordstrom.
