The restaurant was opened by husband and wife George and Rena Poulos in 1958 and is still operated by the Poulos family as of 2011. It is also known for its neon sign,Googie architecture, and 1950s decor. Pann's is located at the intersection of La Cienega Boulevard and La Tijera Boulevard in Westchester, Los Angeles. The building and its iconic neon sign were designed by architects Eldon Davis and Helen Liu Fong of the Armet & Davis architectural firm. Pann's remains one of the best preserved examples of Davis' Googie designs, according to the Los Angeles Times. Despite claims made on the restaurant's website, it was not, in fact, used as a filming location in the movie Pulp Fiction Like many coffee shops it serves breakfast all day and night. The restaurant also serves "blue-plate specials," complete meals that vary daily. Pann's includes an angular edifice and large plate glass windows and has been described as having "the classic coffee shop architecture". It was designed by Helen Liu Fong, who also designed the Holiday Bowl, Johnie's coffee shop, and the original Norms Restaurant. She included tropical landscaping in the design, and was part of the firm of Armet & Davis that one commentator refers to as "the Frank Lloyd Wright of 1950s coffee shops." Pann's is currently owned by Rena Poulos and son Jim Poulos.Ed Begley told a story about running into César Chávez at Pann's in the 1980s. Pann's was featured in a story in the Los Angeles Times, "Going on a hunt for Googie architecture," which noted the restaurant's tilted roof and sign, tropical plants and exposed stone walls indoors and out, and glass windows wrapping around the restaurant. Pann's celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2008.

Box 542 Long Beach, CA 562.500.9451 [email protected] Memorandum To: Steve Mizokami, City of Santa Monica Date: 03/07/2018 From: Jan Ostashay, Principal OAC Re: PRELIMINARY HISTORICAL ASSESSMENT: 2906 Santa Monica Boulevard Introduction At the request of the City of Santa Monica Planning Division, Ostashay & Associates Consulting (OAC) has conducted a preliminary historical assessment of the property referenced above for consideration as a City Landmark. As part of the scope of work, a site visit was conducted and relevant archival material on the subject property was collected and reviewed. This assessment includes a succinct discussion of the survey methodology used, a summarized property description, a brief historic context, and a concise preliminary evaluation for potential individual historical significance. Relevant supporting material has also been included, as applicable. In concluding the preliminary assessment it appears the subject property possess sufficient historical importance and architectural merit to recommend further consideration as a potential City of Santa Monica Landmark. Because of its rare Googie architectural qualities and association with noted master architects Armet & Davis the property may satisfy criteria associated with historical architecture. It is also recommended that as part of any additional investigation of the property’s landmark potential, the status of its historical integrity and a more extensive comparative analysis of extant Googie style coffee shop restaurants remaining in the City be completed. Methodology For this preliminary assessment a site inspection, a review of building permits and tax assessor records, and site-specific research were completed to document the property’s existing condition, develop an appropriate themed-based historic context, and assist in evaluating the residence for potential historical significance.

  • Westside Draft EIS/EIR Chapter 5
    CHAPTERCHAPTER 5— 5—SECTION 4(f) EVALUATION The Westside Subway Extension will be seeking Federal transit funding grants and discretionary approvals through the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Federal Transit Administration (FTA); therefore, documentation of compliance with Section 4(f) is required. Section 4(f), as amended, of the USDOT Act of 1966 (codified at 49 USC 303) protects public parklands and recreational lands, wildlife refuges, and historic sites of national, state, or local significance. Federal regulations that implement Section 4(f) may be found in 23 CFR 774. The FTA may not approve the use, as defined in 23 CFR 774.17, of a Section 4(f) property unless the FTA determines the following: There is no prudent and feasible alternative to the use of land from the property The program or project includes all possible planning to minimize harm to the property resulting from such use The regulations further require consultation with the Department of Interior and, as appropriate, the Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), as well as relevant state and local officials, in developing transportation projects and programs that use lands protected by Section 4(f). Consultation with the USDA would occur whenever a project uses Section 4(f) land from the National Forest System. Consultation with HUD would occur whenever a project uses Section 4(f) land for/on which certain HUD funding had been used. Since neither of these conditions apply to the Project, consultation with the USDA and HUD is not required. 5.1 Section 4(f ) Evaluation Overview A preliminary inventory of Section 4(f) properties and the potential for Section 4(f) use was conducted as a part of the previous Alternatives Analysis evaluation for this project.
