Another successful Christmas shopping season is in the books at Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, and two retailers won't be participating in the next one. Solstice, a sunglasses boutique, is closing. They are currently holding a liquidation sale. Meanwhile, the expected closure of Vitamin World was underway yesterday at the mall, as workers packed up the remaining contents of the store. Moribund Montgomery County has lost over 2000 retail jobs since 2000, according to the Maryland Association of Retailers.
