BIZNOTES: Three from Westwood Village

Three Westwood Village notes tonight:

(WSB photo when signs first appeared two weeks ago)

TOTAL WINE TOMORROW? The signs saying “Open 9 am May 30” are still on the Total Wine & More doors at 2501 SW Trenton as of our most recent check a short time ago. Perhaps it’s a soft open, as the company was taking RSVPs for a ribbon-cutting and “preview” event next Wednesday evening (June 4).

J. CREW ON THE MAP: We’ve been reporting on evidence that clothing retailer J. Crew is opening a “factory” store in the ex-GameStop and tanning-salon spaces. Now more evidence: The logo is officially on the WWV map (above), which is the only way the center has been “announcing” new tenants.

RITE AID’S FUTURE: When Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy again, we reported that the Westwood Village store’s lease was among those offered “for assignment” by a broker working with the company to offload dozens of stores. CVS is reported to be taking over more than 60 Rite Aid stores in the region, but no hint yet if WWV is among them – its leasing map now shows that space (above) as “available.”
