Join us this week as we talk with Bob Adjemian about his golden youth clerking at the legendary Pickwick Bookshop on Hollywood Boulevard. We’ll also visit with Brian Kaiser, Southern California’s tile expert, to explore the design and manufacture of the tile for Union Station, the last great rail terminal in the west.
We’ll also discuss the closure of Hollywood’s venerable World Book & News newsstand, a planned facelift for one of the ugliest buildings on Broadway, Ed Ruscha’s Hollywood Boulevard street photography, California’s proposed Atkins Bill offers tax credits for renovating historic buildings, Los Angeles to pay $1.75 Million for legal bills for opponents of the Hollywood Plan and a sale and use change for the 1929 Gothic-Art Deco Foreman & Clark building downtown Going Mixed-Use. All this and more and Kim & Richard usher in the week of June 9th, 2014.
