Quoted from girloveswaffles:I also have been to the other California store that used to been in Santa Clara that was just off the 101 FWY, a short distance from Great America and Levi Stadium.
Unfortunately it closed down some years ago. Supposedly they couldn't make a decent deal for rent with the building owners and closed up. I know it was still empty six years ago so I guess the building owners burned themselves.
Heard this same exact story from a friend of mine who used to work right by there(over on Tasman). I hate that the store is gone, but I love it when this kind of thing happens. Screw those owners who try to squeeze too much out of their tenants. Same thing happened in my town with the local Boomers a number of years ago. Land owner wanted more money, Boomers said no and demolished the place. It's been a plain dirt patch ever since. Sucks to lose a Boomers, but worth it to have the owner learn a lesson.
