Apartment Living on Colorado? How About it!

It’s hard to drive in much of Northeast L.A. these days without running into construction projects for apartment buildings—in all sort of unexpected places. (Go south on Eagle Rock Boulevard in Glassell Park, for example, and you’ll see the ground being la

I like the style of this complex, but I don't like the idea of builders cramming housing into everyRead More inch of available space. I like this little town because it isn't crowded like Glendale.

I hope not. That architecture is ugly.

@eaglerocker Your assertion that "everyone" in Eagle Rock is pro-bike lanes is incorrect.Read More I think dedicating an entire traffic lane in either direction for a handful of cyclists is silly. While I do believe that something should be done to slow the flow of traffic on Colorado, I think the elimination of driving lanes will only add to motorists' commute times through Eagle Rock.

Tim Ryder: That Chamber of Commerce "survey" you're flogging never listed the businessesRead More that took it, so it's totally bogus. It probably didn't even happen! And your assertion that most businesses and residents are against the bike lanes is patently, laughably, totally false. According to Patch, every single business you or I have ever heard of on Colorado has signed a letter 100% in support of bike lanes. Camilo's? Check. Swork? Yup. Colorado Wine? You bet. There is no debate: everyone in Eagle Rock wants the bike lanes, except you and your business partner Tom Topping. What's up with this pathetic campaign of lies you two are waging? Why is it worth destroying what little credibility you two had in this town?

According to recent surveys by the Chamber of Commerce and the local newspaper (Boulevard Sentinel),Read More most business and residents in Eagle Rock are all for sharing the auto lanes with the bike activists but are decidedly against giving up their auto lanes entirely to accommodate a few bicycle riders. The purported goal of the DOT bureaucrats to 'get drivers out of their cars' is an admirable one yet they still have not explained how to transport three bags of groceries and two young children on the back seat of a bike without anyone on the road getting killed?

So now I guess the LAPD will run 4J/blue pickup on their computer which is most likely owned byRead More someone in the area and get a few leads. Right? Oh wait, this is the LAPD. You're screwed!

I participated in the Homeless Registry in Pasadena a while back. It was an extraordinaryRead More experience! I recommend it for anyone who wants to make a difference in our community. Unfortunately, I am not available for the Highland Park/Eagle Rock Registry weekend. Good luck, everyone!!!
