TWO BOOTS TO OPEN IN LOS ANGELES

I saw this on Chowhound LA, who says that this location in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles will soon be the first west coast branch of OTBKB fave Two Boots.

"The owners of this commercial building on the southside of Sunset Boulevard between Lemoyne St. and Glendale Blvd. recently exposed part of the metal facade to reveal some of the original brick walls and stone arches of the building.

The owners, who also run the popular Echo nightclub, recently won the backing of the EPHS to remove a section of the facade as they renovate part of the building for a pizza parlor.

They need a final OK from the city before they can take off the rest. They do not have immediate plans to restore the arched windows or the remainder of the facade but we would expect the results will have nearby residents asking them to take the rest of that cheesey metal siding off and let that building’s historic beauty shine through. We hope they listen."
