Here's the answer to my question on the status of the Whole Foods on Blossom Hill Road from the current issue of the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal.
Harry Mavrogenes, head of the San Jose Redevelopment Agency, saids that the construction of the two South Bay stores will be delayed and the size of the stores will be scaled back, but that "They are not stopping. They will stop work now, but they still intend to open."
The Blossom Hill Road store's opening has been pushed back from 2009 to 2010 and the store will now be 50,000 sf instead of 70,000 sf.
The Downtown area store's opening date has been pushed back to 2011 and the store will now be 36,000 sf instead of 40,000 sf, but will lose the rooftop parking.
Your comments are alway appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Great information Jordan. We drive to WF in Los Gatos to buy gluten-free products for our 6-year old.
We have been looking forward to this location 10 minutes from our home opening. Guess we need to wait a little bit longer.
I think this will be a great location for Whole Foods moving forward.
