What a lovely tribute
Re: “So long, Joe, it’s been good knowing you” [Volume 7, Issue 25 or at bit.ly/1NMyr2I]
Katherine Hon eloquently described the multiple, important roles Joe Schloss played in North Park for many years. In other articles, Ms. Hon has educated us about historically significant sites in North Park. As her tribute to Joe Schloss points out, the community has also been fortunate to have some special people contribute to its history.

More on Smart & Final
Re: “Smart & Final Extra! concept explained” [Volume 7, Issue 26, or at bit.ly/1QX2R9b]
We need a grocery store within walking distance in the neighborhood! We don’t live in utopia and no one is going to get everything they want. A decent grocery store is better than an empty building any day of the week!

It looks as if the only ones that have a problem with Smart & Final are the unions. How hypocritical especially when they have no issues with Costco, which is union.

An informative article
Re: “A Modern story” [Volume 8, Issue 1 or at bit.ly/1RkdfIj]
Superlative article spelling out the development of residential history of the 20th century. Places like Clairemont and Allied Gardens (where I began life) are our own little Levittowns. I learned some new architect names from the eras of whom I was not aware. Thanks for a great article!

I remember The Hungry Hunter as a kid, and went to Hunter’s several years ago with my grandpa. Thanks for the reminder of this great spot – sounds like another visit for me is in order!

Big fan of Andy’s food and haven’t even tried the Argentine feast yet. Check out my review of him on my new BBQ website. Nice write-up.
