I’m as anxious as anyone to hear words. At this pace after two false starts we may see BART to Livermore before ever being able to stroll and shop here.

I for one though still would like to see a Whole Foods here in Dublin sooner than later so our family does not need to continue driving to SR or WC for the other E.Bay locations. We always end up shopping at the SR Target and eating nearby there instead of spending and eating in Dublin when we travel to their Whole Foods store.

I agree on the high price but fortunately I am able to and are willing to pay for quality. Their ready to eat food options/section and bakery are first class. Safeway has improved but the Organic section is less than impressive when it comes to produce. Their ready to eat food are cafeteria like. We do still support Safeway too though as it is a local Tri Valley Co. It’ll just be nice to have a higher scale gourmet option like Whole Foods in Dublin, plus we need it for this Retail Center to become reality in our lifetime. Some on this blog have shunned at Whole Foods but really a Ralph’s or Food Max would not get us the Retail Center that Dubliners and Blake Hunt envisioned. We’d end up with more Condos/Apartments. Bloomingdales is not an option so we can stop dreaming, they’d open one in WC or Pleasanton before any thoughts of Dublin.

Hopefully we’ll hear some sort of announcement in the coming months regarding the status of The Green on Park Place.
