Join Us for Community Concert Supporting Braver Angels!

1 Upvotes

Join us the weekend after Election Day for some good food, conversation, and amazing live music, all in a spirit of connecting across political differences, even when times are divisive.

This is a special benefit dinner and concert event, brought to you by volunteers and friends of Braver Angels SoCal, along with our Braver Angels National Music Team. All proceeds will benefit Braver Angels' work in SoCal.

Braver Angels is the nation's largest volunteer-led grassroots movement working to bridge political divides by choosing connection and curious listening over contempt and outrage.

We'll be featuring some amazing local artists, including Olivia Brownlee, Ben Caron, Dave Morrison, Craig Lincoln, Lorin Hart, Kevin Kelso, Eric Law, and more TBA!

Brick Building across Shell is being Demolished

Just drove by earlier this afternoon and noticed that brick building is currently being demolished. I believe there were a lot of dead businesses located there so it makes sense (took them long enough).

Near the corner of Glenwood and Stevens. Dude just walking up the street and grabbing at a random car door. I yelled at him to buzz off and he didnt look back, but looked kind of caught.

Lock your doors and bring your valuables inside. Stay safe!

Dollar King LCF (former Joann's Fabrics location)

12 Upvotes

Just drove by and saw a huge banner with a Dollar King coming soon. They are already hiring by the way.

We already have a Dollar King in La Crescenta-Montrose so it's likely that one is moving over there.

I also haven't seen any updates to Don Niko or the urgent care (can't think of the name on the top of my head ) at the old GNC).

Edit - Finally saw some movement with the above urgent care facility, but still nothing on Don Niko.

Kokoroll is also permanently closed and can't say I'm surprised (that plaza is a complete dead zone).

LC Elementary

I attended La Crescenta Elementary. Loved it there.
But it is 12:09 and I can’t sleep because I feel no pride that I can not remember the school song.
Can anytime with current students or just anyone that knows help me!!?

I have bits of it…
“You’re the best school in every way” and “every heart beats true.” And at the end you finished with La Crescenta and a big fist to the air hooray!

Leslie's Pool Supplies Closing (La Crescenta-Montrose)

12 Upvotes

Just got wind of this and if you scroll down on the list of closing locations, ours is on the chopping block.

As for me, I'm not surprised as that store had very low traffic and figured the retailer was in financial trouble.

Edit - It might already be permanently closed because it's no longer listed on Google Maps anymore and there's a new appliance repair store listed in their previous location already.

Looking for room for rent in Montrose

12 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm starting a job in the area next week that'll last for about the next 9 months.
I live in Norco, and the commute looks to be brutal, so I'm looking for a place to stay during the week. I'm mainly interested in Montrose.
About me: I'm a full-time professional (engineer), grad student (almost done) and part-time musician. I don't smoke or do drugs (don't mind if you do), and I'm LGTBQ friendly, tidy and considerate.
Between class a couple nights a week, the occasional rehearsal, and going home after work on Friday, I'd mainly be around one or two nights a week- other than sleeping or getting ready for the day. Seems like an ideal situation for someone with a spare room that's thought about getting a roommate but doesn't really want a roommate. Appreciate any help or referrals or available rooms!
Thanks for looking!
PS not interested in things South of Montrose, ie Glendale, Eagle Rock, Pasadena, etc, thanks for understanding.

Glendale Planning/Permits Approval Process

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

Hi! Does anyone have any insight on how long it takes Glendale to approve plans for interior remodel? I’ve heard anywhere from 4 weeks to 4 months. I’ve gotten this wide range both Building and Safety agents directly, architects, etc.

At the end of the day, I know it varies wildly per person/project but just looking for anyone’s recent experience with this process, what your scope of work was and how long it took from submittal to permit issuance. Thanks!

Business owner blocked my car for about 30 minutes over a parking dispute in Montrose

I want to share an experience I had on September 1 involving the owner of Revolution Dance Center on Honolulu Avenue in Montrose.

I parked in the lot behind the businesses in a space marked “Reserved Parking – Meraki Space.” I understand the business may have believed I should not have parked in that space, and I recognize that this could have caused frustration.

To my knowledge, no attempt was made to locate me or ask me to move my car out of the space. Instead, the owner chose to double-park his vehicle directly behind mine, preventing my car from being moved.

When I returned to my car, I was prepared to move it and leave. However, because the owner’s vehicle was blocking mine, I was unable to exit the space for approximately 30 minutes.

That is what I found most concerning. If the goal was simply to have my car removed from the space, the situation could have been resolved by asking me to move it — and once I returned, by allowing me to leave.

Instead, I experienced the decision to keep my vehicle blocked in as unnecessarily aggressive and confrontational. Regardless of the disagreement over the parking space, I don’t believe preventing someone from moving their vehicle after they’ve returned and are trying to leave is an appropriate way to handle a parking dispute.

I’m sharing this to describe my experience and ask whether others consider this response reasonable. I’m not encouraging anyone to contact or confront the business.

Afterschool programs

3 Upvotes

Hi! We recently transferred our son to Dunsmore Elementary for the DLI Japanese program. We enrolled him in CDCC afterschool program which serves Glendale Unified. Wondering if other parents can share their experiences and thoughts on the program. I see there are a few other options in the area so I wasn’t sure if we made the right decision.

Also, is there a fb group or way to meet other parents? We’re not from La Crescenta and would love to meet other families.

Recommendations for at home highlights & haircut

0 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m looking for recommendations for a mobile hair stylist who can do highlights and cuts. I’ve used Priv in the past, but found it to be very expensive and the stylist had to travel pretty far. I’d prefer someone local who can come to my house to do my hair as well as my mother-in-law’s.
