Going to Westwood Village? Electricity work closes some stores

| Utilities | West Seattle news | Westwood

Thanks to Dwight for e-mailing about a power outage affecting some stores at Westwood Village. It is NOT on the Seattle City Light map; we just went over to check and found that several businesses in the center of the mall – including Pier 1 Imports and Eats Market Café – have signs up saying they’re closed for the day because SCL is doing transformer work. Some stores on the east side of the mall that were reportedly out earlier have power now (including QFC), so bottom line, if you’re going to Westwood Village, you might want to check directly with the store first to see if it’s affected.

I was at QFC this morning around 8am. Their freezers were out of power all night so they were tossing out ALL perishable food. I was luckily not shopping for anything other than fruit (which were all fine) but I would think twice about stopping in their this afternoon/evening if you were planning on grabbing some meat for dinner.

I wonder if it’s related to the crazy mini power outage caused by the Target sign a week+ ago.

I was also at QFC this morning… anything that was refridgorated was GONE! lunch meat, eggs butter, meat, frozen food isle, ice cream isle. They had things roped off and tied off. Hope they got it fixed.

Sorry, comment time is over.
