About a month ago, Sekisui announced plans to move its original location at Humphreys Center to Regalia Center in the site of Circa.

Those plans are now “on hold,” according to David Lindsey of Sekisui.

“It’s not going to happen anytime soon,” says Lindsey. “That’s all I can tell you at this point.”

Details were not provided as to what happened. Lindsey says there are no immediate plans to move into Regalia or relocate the Humphreys restaurant, referred to among the locations as Sekisui East, to another location. The Humphreys restaurant closed in December after the lease was not renewed to make way for the Baptist Center for Cancer Care.

Lindsey says that most of the staff from Sekisui East are now at different locations. He says that the Humphreys restaurant, the first Sekisui opened in 1989, has a loyal customer base.

“Fortunately,” Lindsey says, “there are enough locations so that everyone has an option.”
