Thanks for the tip! We’ve just gone over to Westwood Village to confirm it and get a photo – Total Wine & More, in the northeast corner of the center, has posted its opening date and time: 9 am Friday, May 30. We have been tracking the development of the store, in the former Staples space, since first discovering the plan in city permit files 13 months ago. More info to come …
Great. A store full of alcohol. Just what the neighborhood needed.
-also cigars(hopefully) and non alcoholic beverages too! Yay!! Aren’t you worried about alcohol also being sold at other stores in WWV? Rite Aid, Target, & QFC
You’re kind of making my point for me there, Anne. There are already plenty of places to get alcholic products in that area. It’s a shame that we can’t have something else that complements the shopping center instead.
We’re not living in the 1920s – alcohol is totally legal and I don’t see a problem with responsible drinking.
You’re totally right, complete waste of space. It would be so much better if a pizza restaurant moved in.
How hard is it to say Welcome to a new business? Wish them the best. I’ll be there to check out their non-alcoholic selections & hoping they have cigars like the one at Southcenter-my brother loves a good cigar occasionally.
So excited to have this in my neighborhood. And to those worried about security: pretty sure this multibillion dollar company has thought through the issue more than anyone in the comments.
Premium cigars for my husband! Imported Shandy and wine tasting classes for me!
Excellent. They have a good selection of non alcoholic beer for us non alkies
Kt … nice backhanded comment, speaking as one of those “alkies” … I’m sure you didn’t mean to be “non offensive”.
Let’s look at the positive side, more jobs, more tax revenue for the state, we have those sin taxes … A non-empty store front brings more shopping to the area, Their selections are much larger than the grocery stores.They carry an extensive selection of items produced in Washington State, again more money for local businesses.
While I don’t personally mind the store, they have amazing N/A options, I do feel Westwood is already a situation with theft, now we add a big liquor store- should be interesting. And right next to a child care center.
I really like the classes that Total Wine offers and I hope they provide them at this location.
