710 Fwy Extension Update
The proposed 710 Freeway extension could potentially impact neighborhoods across large swaths of NELA and the SGV, though to what extent is still a matter for debate. From the LA Times: “County transportation officials have released the final version of their analysis of alternatives for closing the so-called 710 gap between Alhambra and Pasadena… The MTA will hold three community open houses to share the report’s information.” The events are:
Jan. 23 at Maranantha High School, 6 to 8 p.m.
Jan. 24 at San Marino Community Church, 6 to 8 p.m.
Jan. 26 in the Golden Eagle Building at Cal State L.A., 9 to 11 a.m.

Eastside Dominates List of “Hot Neighborhoods”
Real estate website Redfin wondered, which urban neighborhoods will be the hottest in 2013? Polling 600 agents nationwide they came up with this list of places where increasing sales and rising prices run headlong into a decreasing availability homes. Four of them turned out to be right here in LA. And it’s no surprise to us that three of the hottest neighborhoods in our entire country are the fast-rising Northeast enclaves Highland Park, Eagle Rock and Glassell Park.
The time to sell or buy in these areas is now, and no one knows them better than Tracy Do Real Estate. A proven leader and expert in Eastside purchases and sales.

Coming Soon to NELA: Parklets
As you can see in this rendering, a parklet is a small plaza-like space in our urban jungle where we can lock our bikes, relax, even get some exercise. They’re designed to fit in two curbside parking spaces and as Frank Shyong reported in the LA Times yesterday, the northeast LA communities of Highland Park and El Sereno are among four areas slated for these cool little pocket-sized parks, of which I’m a huge fan. They’re funded with private grant money and can do wonders toward creating more livable, pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods. It’s a pilot program as of now, with just six months allotted for each park initially. But given the popularity of other pop-up parks I’ve seen, like this one in Silverlake, my guess — and hope — is that parklets are here to stay and will proliferate.

FYI Quick Read…
There was good article this past weekend in the La Canada Valley Sun concerning the latest turn (no pun intended) in the 710 Freeway extension debate. Seems CalTrans/LA Metro have taken all “surface route” options off the table, which is great news for some but continues to anger residents of northeast LA communities like Pasadena and La Canada Flintridge, among others.
