All businesses are open during the remodel to the facades of the Parkwood Plaza shopping center at 15220 Aurora Ave N.

The Sherwin-Williams, Whistle Workwear, Mediterranean Bakery and Market, and JoAnn's storefronts are done except for new signage.

The second phase for Iora, Pho Restaurant, Philippine American Market, Acupuncture Clinic, the Martial Arts dojo and Arcane Comics has started. Those businesses will remain open but with disruption to the parking spaces in front.

Phase three will move to Aurora Prints and the Korean BBQ Restaurant when phase two is complete.

Phase four, the new Starbucks is now being excavated. The prep work for the foundation is in progress.

The exterior work for phases 1-3 will look similar to the Safeway remodel that was done a few years ago making the Parkwood Plaza have consistent appearance.
