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.
Old Broadway Plaza location (across from Macy’s):
Back in November, 2011 Cornology opened in Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek and due to the Plaza’s pending redevelopment they have now closed this location. You can still check them out at their Emeryville location in the Bay Street mall or online here. Check out their flavor list here. According to an update they are looking for a replacement store:
As part of a redesign of Broadway Plaza, Cornology Walnut Creek will be relocating as of January 31. We’re doing our best to find the perfect new location, so enter your email to be one of the first to find out.
The backside of Broadway Plaza is looking more and more like a ghost town as the time until the redevelopment begins and now the shoe store Clarks has closed. According to a sign in the window they will reopen in Broadway Plaza in 2016. You can still visit their other stores in the Stoneridge Mall in Pleasanton and the Westfield in San Francisco.
Thanks to everyone who let me know that Boudin Bakery & Cafe has closed in Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek on Wednesday. The yummy sandwiches and reasonable prices made this a favorite place to get a bite to eat. Having read the goodbye sign it looks like they’re trying to return to Broadway Plaza when it reopens in ‘late 2015’.
I’ll let a Boudin fan who wrote in have the last word:
Sadly, Boudin Bakery Cafe has closed due to the Broadway Plaza redevelopment. This store generously donated unsold food for many years to St. Vincent de Paul at St. Mary’s church in WC, and helped many people. Now, because Broadway Plaza has forced out many longtime tenants in order to “redevelop,” the restaurant had to close, as an alternate space apparently was not to be found. Many thanks to the fine folks at Boudin for their generosity over the years! Boudin represents an organization that clearly has the greater good in mind.
The jeans shop 7 For All Mankind has closed in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek. Considering this is located next to Lacoste which recently closed to make room for a Tesla showroom it looks like this may be used by Tesla as well.
For jeans there is still Lucky Brand and True Religion right around the corner where the fountain is.
In time for Valentine’s Day, See’s Candies has relocated within Broadway Plaza where The Walking Company used to be directly across from Neiman Marcus, next to Starbucks and Lucky Jeans.
Back in October I noted that True Religion Jeans was temporarily relocating in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek due to the redevelopment plan and the signage is now up in their new location across from the fountain and a few stores away from Lucky Brand Jeans.
