If you're ever in Echo Park, be sure to check out the Time Travel Mart! This tiny storefront is the public face of @826la - a creative writer's workshop for Los Angeles students. The shop is full of really fun time travel-themed displays and merchandise, with all proceeds going to 826LA's free writing programs for kids.

Dating back to 1960, @andyscoffeeshop is a beloved old diner on East Colorado in Pasadena, just west of PCC (the address is literally 1-2-3-4). They're open just for breakfast and lunch, and behind the unassuming storefront you'll find a cozy atmosphere and some really excellent breakfast mainstays. The breakfast burrito is particularly delicious, and don't skimp on the salsa. 😋

In the 1970s, there was an ambitious--albeit deeply flawed--proposal to build an elevated people mover through Downtown's financial district. The people mover never got built, but one element of the larger vision was partially realized: a network of pedestrian bridges that would have connected the various office buildings, hotels, and residential towers of Bunker Hill.

We're hardly the first to highlight the Bradbury Building, but it's worth mentioning that it has reopened after being closed for much of the pandemic, allowing you to admire the glorious architecture. The main post-covid change is you can't go up to the first floor landings anymore, you have to stick to the ground floor. But if you're ever checking out Grand Central Market across the street, drop in and take a look!

We were featured in the LA Times today! Our sincerest thanks to @juliacarmel for interviewing us and highlighting some of our favorite places around town! You can find a link to the article in our story today!

Show of hands, how many of you know about the observation deck on top of City Hall? 👋
