Across from La Arcada at 8. E. Figueroa. Maybe part of Bank of the West.
Nope, but thanks for guessing!

she hired a local architect to do work on a house she bought that he was the original architect , he did the agreed work at the agreed price, sent her a $30,000 bill and after many months of attempting to collect the debt she sent said architect $5,000 with the comment "that's all you get" and a couple months later she flipped the house for a $5 million profit. that is a disgusting human being.
We enjoyed Parcelles on our last visit. We used to rent apartments in haut Marais and it’s full of good food extending over into the 11th.
Real Esate ads…I miss your early days - before real estate ads - when your snark and honestly weren’t G-Rated. Get your license and start drinking your “truth serum” again. I loved your perspective so much. I would’ve used you as an agent. You “see” it all in such a unique and funny way.
Erik, Paris is a pearl, but how dare you not visit any fashion museums! ; ) A New Yorker in Paris skipping fashion during couture week? You must return and finish the trip.

Lovely romp through Paris. But pas de Fauchon? Sacre bleu!

Jim, say more? What do you mean about not paying her bills?
A feast for the eyes! Maybe The Eddy can source the Caramel au Beurre Sale.
Amazing photos Erik! Like you said Paris is the only city, or at least one if the only cities, that is worth keep going back to. Always charming, rich in history and art yet fun and relaxing away from home. Simply home away from home no matter where you live. Reading your article definitely .makes me want to revisit Paris.

I second that. NIMBY

Excited for a new chef at Mattei's. Really hoping they focus more on healthier and plant-based options that emphasize sourcing from a lot of the amazing local farms in SYV. As for the Coral Casino, seems like an obnoxious boys club over there in their operations/management and the design choices are less than classy.
The big slip-out shown above is on West Mountain Drive. That road has been closed from El Cielito to Coyote since the road slid down the hill several months ago. The only progress towards reopening has been to add several barricades near the slide. The road closure for East Mountain Drive may refer to some other project.
Somebody needs a ride on the Waaaambulance!! #911
