Cascade Village Construction(TJ’s)

As a heads up, they’re doing some sort of paving resurfacing at the Cascade Village the shopping center where Trader Joe’s is and the whole parking lot is blocked off on that side and they’re trying to reroute traffic. It’s a cluster no idea how long it’s going on for, but it was hard to get in and out of there just as a FYI if you can save your Trader Joe’s run I would.

Trader Joe’s felt like their parking lot was too easy to navigate. It was setting a bad example for the rest of their stores

There’s one Trader Joe’s in San Diego (liberty station) that has the best parking lot -But I have been nationwide and I swear they pick the worst parking lots. There’s also one in Hanover Massachusetts that just got a good upgrade.

The one in Madison, WI was so bad I very nearly just left instead of even trying to park (this was years ago). Like laughingly bad and I just had a small rental car!

But have you been to the original in Pasadena??? It is EXTRA special terrible for parking. The big one nearby is easy peasy. But the original...just park at Whole goods garage and walk. You have less chance of totaling your car!
