The writing was on the wall for a long time and now the backside of Broadway Plaza is closed. It was pretty cool strolling back there with empty stores but now that’s it’s closed I guess we’ll have to wait until 2017 before this section reopens. Check out the Boradway Plaza Redevelopment FAQ here.
Last week I noted that Edwards Luggage would be reopening in a new Broadway Plaza location next to Neiman Marcus in Walnut Creek and they are now open. I stopped by inside and it looks really nice.
Macy’s Junior, located next to Macy’s Men and the new Banana Republic in Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek has relocated across the street to the “Women’s Building”. I never realized that was considered the women’s building as I shopped for kitchen goods and luggage on the third floor many times.
Due to the impending redevelopment of Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek resulting in the closure of many stores there for the next couple of years, Broadway Plaza has decided to offer FREE complimentary valet parking to Broadway Plaza shoppers. There will also be additional complementary valet parking on S. Main St. for Neiman Marcus customers. In case you were wondering, cars will be parked at the parking garage next to Crate and Barrel. Although the valet is complimentary, tips are appreciated.
Back in December I noted that Edwards Luggage would be relocating from the backside of Broadway Plaza to a new Broadway Plaza spot next to Neiman Marcus and they are very close to reopening at this new location. The old location has now closed and now every store on the backside of Broadway Plaza has closed except for Banana Republic, which will open across the street in March.
Spotted in the backside of Broadway Plaza slated to close for redevelopment for the next couple of years, I think this topiary is quite apt. Anyone know what animal this was?
Back in January I noted the Banana Republic remodel had begun in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek and now there is a massive sign outside announcing that it will be opening next month in March.
GRATiAE Skin Care opened a couple of years ago in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek and they have now closed. Can’t wait until this side of Broadway Plaza reopens!
I was wandering around the backside of Broadway Plaza the other day as it wasn’t closed off since Edwards Luggage was the lone remaining store open and was wondering how it will look when it’s all over. In the meantime where will people go? The other side of Broadway Plaza? Downtown Walnut Creek? Lafayette? Elsewhere?
There are more and more signs posted like the one below informing people of the redevelopment soon to take place:
3569-C Mt. Diablo Blvd, Lafayette
The women’s fashion boutique Lanvie will soon be relocating from Broadway Plaza to the Clock Tower in downtown Lafayette on Mt. Diablo Blvd. next to Francesca’s Collections. They also have a Pleasanton location. Check out their website here and thanks to a reader for letting us know about the move!
I wonder what other stores will relocate from Broadway Plaza to Lafayette? Three more retail spaces are available right next to the new restaurant Cooperage American Grille.
