  • [email protected]> Subject: Tenant at 3032 Wilshire
    From: Mari Newhoff <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 17, 2020 2:40 PM To: Planning <[email protected]> Subject: Tenant at 3032 Wilshire EXTERNAL  Dear Planning Commission: I am writing to voice my concerns about the potential new convenience store tenant in the 3032 Wilshire building. The convenience store will create a lot of headaches for the residential neighborhood to which it is adjacent. When Bristol Farms came in, it elevated the neighborhood followed by Erewhon and Trader Joe’s. After the investment of creating such a beautiful building, the first tenant should not be one that has the potential to downgrade the neighborhood. There are five 7/11s within a mile of this project: such as Santa Monica and Sawtelle, Wilshire and Bundy, Santa Monica and Wellesley – not one of them is inviting from a consumer standpoint. They are all littered with trash and a haven for the homeless. AND if this is the first anchor tenant, I fear it will scare off prospective Class A tenants which the neighborhood desperately need such as bakeries or restaurants. After living through the inconsiderate construction which began as early as 6:30am most days, the neighborhood was looking forward to a little class. I am pleading with you to reconsider. Best, Mari Newhoff 1230 Berkeley Street To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, Jul 18, 2020 1:31 pm Subject: New Business - PLEASE No! Santa Monica Planning, I am a home owner in the 1200 block of Berkeley Street in Santa Monica. I am writing to respectfully protest against a new business, potentially planned for the new building on the southwest corner of Berkeley Street and Wilshire Blvd.

Members of Erewhonian society are all obliged to sign a document at birth admitting that they have chosen to be born of their own free will, and obliging them to indemnify their parents for any trouble it may cause them. Other appealing ideas are the inverted treatment of crime and physical illness: if you embezzle money, you're given medical treatmen "I never asked to be born" says a character in The Blind Assassin , and is promptly corrected. Other appealing ideas are the inverted treatment of crime and physical illness: if you embezzle money, you're given medical treatment, but anyone foolish enough to contract pneumonia is sent to jail. It's still a fun read! View all 15 comments. Erewhon as a novel has a fairly thin but still interesting plot line in an intriguing environment. Unfortunately, meshing the two of these together makes for a difficult book to swallow at times.

  • Erewhon Opens 4Th Location in Santa Monica
    Erewhon Opens 4th Location in Santa Monica prnewswire.com/news-releases/erewhon-opens-4th-location-in-santa-monica-300626160.html LOS ANGELES, April 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Erewhon Organic Grocer and Cafe is opening its fourth location on April 11, 2018. Located at 2800 Wilshire Boulevard in Santa Monica, the grand opening is scheduled for 9am. Erewhon is known for supporting holistic wellness through their curated product mix, quality standards, highly trained staff, and their popular Tonic Bar and Cafe. Erewhon Market Santa Monica | 2800 Wilshire Blvd 1/3 Erewhon Market Santa Monica In a world of parent companies and subsidiaries, Erewhon has remained an independent, family-owned business for fifty years. Erewhon started as a specialty health food store focusing on macrobiotics, and were widely recognized as pioneers in the space. Today, Erewhon continues to forge the path when it comes to functional foods, adaptogens, herbs, and superfoods – particularly in its Organic Cafe, Tonic Bar and Nutrition Department. With Amazon's acquisition of Whole Foods Market last year, the grocery landscape continues to undergo tremendous change. According to a recent study by the Hartman Group, online shopping grew from 23% in 2014 to 29% in 2017. But despite technology, a majority of shoppers still prefer shopping in store for their groceries. Owner Tony Antoci explains, "I've been in the industry for many years and I can honestly say, Erewhon is a very special place. When you enter our stores, you can actually feel the energy. And that is more than the décor and the music, it is the energy of a passionate community." From their 100% organic produce and strict oversight of product ingredients, the Erewhon Standard is recognized for setting a high bar in terms of quality.
