All correct and worth the effort even with the foreknowledge that the people who need to read it most either will not read it or just cannot read.
You're not wrong. I really wanted to get to 10—once a magazine editor, always a magazine editor—and back when I first put this together, there was a news article somewhere about people wanting to call law enforcement because someone at the Montecito Hot Springs had a camera, which struck me as unrealistic.
Would like to mention Sage Trail Alliance as another organization to support for trail maintenance. While they are our local mountain bike organization, the trail work they do is beneficial to all who use our front and backcountry trails, as we all recreate in the same places. They do amazing work, and frequently have volunteer days on for trail work where anyone can volunteer to help maintain the trails we all love.
No. 9 is such an odd take. Not sure what normalizing photographing people naked has to do with hiking…
Not sure how you approach changing the mind-set of people who can’t keep their small bits of trash/personal use items in their possession - almost like asking them to put their shopping cart back in the provided cart corral ….
Here’s a question: those tile “N” are found throughout town. One is on the end of the La Cumbre Rd overpass on the Hope Ranch side. For a decade I’ve wondered who put them there and what do they mean?
Very much needed, like the format and the various subject matter that is not covered in other publications. Living in Ventura County I am always interested in other locations' news, retail, theatrical and other interests as you present. Thank you
currently at 918 Chapala Street, is moving to 320 State Street (just below Gutierrez).
Right between 2941 and 2945 De La Vina St!
I’m sure safety concerns are the reason… lol
I watched the city council meeting on Tuesday and the same Jessica Grant, Transportation Planner with the city presented a plan for the Castillo street 101 underpass. It's unbelievable that the new design is for ONE LANE going northbound from Montecito street. Anyone that lives or works in the are knows the area is already impacted by traffic at all hours of the day. One lane for everyone coming from the Mesa and SBCC, one lane for traffic coming from the harbor, one lane from West Beach. . . all converging into one lane going north under the 101.
"Closed this week due to upkeep maintenance," according to an Instagram post. It's due to reopen on Monday.
Of the 17 views available on SB website - there are exactly 3 pedestrians, and 1 cyclist in total across all images. Is it really wise to make through traffic more difficult, spend millions of dollars, complicate further maintenance, and lose parking for this amount of foot traffic? I understand $27m is a grant and $6.8m is SB city money, but that's still $34m of tax payer funds that could be used elsewhere. A water main repair is fully warranted, but why not work to repave some of our deteriorating streets elsewhere?
I noticed Los Agaves Restaurant on Milpas was closed during dinner hours and had brown paper covering the window. Do you know why.
Thanks
Blegh. Garden is way too PoMo.
219 E Haley is like a block of nothing but inexpensive development. Keep it classic Santa Barbara or forget it.
5 people died constructing that building due to a lack of safety regulations, and that was a very low number for the time. I would rather take longer to build safely and have people not get hurt or maimed, thanks.
Is motion training collective moving or are they going to keep their current location and add this in as a second location?
To each his own. I think the opposite as to the new apartment buildins. Haley St to me is a bad choice of color, cheap looking balcony screening material, and the design looks Orange County mass developer... to me. Whereas I think the colors and fenestration on Garden St is much more pleasing and the design breaks up the mass and scale as percieved from the street.
Kudos to both developers for actually building their much needed housing projects, where many other approved projects sit on hold.
The De la Vina bridge takes 2 years to complete. They built the Empire State Building in just over 1 year. Just saying.
I hope the new Pascucci will offer affordable lunches for those of us working in the area!
A lot of price cuts on these higher priced properties.
Not even a real name, absolutely nothing to help - I couldn't even finish this bot's diatribe. Yuck
Pickle Ball - for the people who can't play tennis or ping pong
The roads are horrible all over the city. I live on the Mesa and it is a joke. De La Vina is pothole breeding ground. What are we doing?
