A parking lot might replace a Safeway in the South Bay that’s set to close in November.
The grocery store, located in Santa Clara at Stevens Creek Boulevard and next to Westfield Valley Fair Shopping Center, has been open for 67 years and shares a parking plaza with the mall. The store is set to close next month as a result of the location not “meeting financial expectations,” a Safeway spokesperson previously told SFGATE. Westfield Valley Fair owns the property where the Safeway is located, Michelle Templeton, a spokesperson for the city of Santa Clara, told SFGATE.
The city hasn’t issued any permits to Westfield yet, Templeton said, and the company didn’t provide a timeline on the parking lot construction. Sue Newsom, a senior general manager at Westfield Valley Fair, told SFGATE that specific plans for the space of the soon-to-be demolished buildings are “still under consideration.” Westfield did not confirm the construction of the parking lot to SFGATE, or comment on whether it would charge a fee.
