This year marks Richard Neutra’s 120th birthday. Earth Day, April 22, will mark 42 years since the first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970, just a week after Neutra’s death. To recognize this event, the Neutra Institute is sponsoring the Neutra 4k-8k run/walk for Health on Sunday, April 22, 2012. The event will be held at the Silver Lake Meadow, across from the Richard and Dion Neutra VDL Research House II.

The morning’s activities will include a 4K individual run, children’s walk, family walk, 20K bike run, award ceremony and closing ceremony. Later in the day, there will be a self-guided tour of the VDL Research House, which is open to all. A wine reception, dinner and other evening events are reservation only and have limited space, so sign up early!

New listings are back! After a few quiet weeks there is finally some activity in the market. I was able to see this new listing in Silver Lake today and I liked what I saw.

Broome Street General Store In Silver Lake

If you’re not careful, you could cruise right by Broome Street General Store in Silver Lake, but that would be a major mistake. This sweet little bungalow on Rowena (the former home of Freight and Zanzabelle) just opened at the beginning of the month and it’s drawing the neighborhood crowd to it’s 30-seat patio and store for a cup of coffee, treats, housewares, and more. It’s easily walkable from the Reservoir path and the surrounding neighborhood, making it the perfect spot to pick up a meal to-go or to unwind on the patio.

Owned by Peter Graham and Sophie Esteban, Broome Street General Store is a throwback to general stores of old, but offering the most sought after staples of modern day, like New York’s Gimme! Coffee, gourmet pantry items from Morris Kitchen, kitchenwares, sundries, and even furnishings, jewelry, and vintage finds.

Plus, there are prepared foods from Heirloom LA, Valerie Confections, and Cake Monkey, including salted caramel croissants, blueberry vanilla bean handpies, cheddar bacon scones, and lunch/dinner options like seared steak sandwiches, roasted veggie sandwiches, and roasted carrot salads, just to name a few. More food options are coming this summer, including Fried Chicken Fridays starting in July.

Gimme! Coffee is proving to be a major draw at Broome St. General Store. The New York-based company is known for their high-quality beans, artisan roasting, and dedication to sustainability. In NY, they have a half dozen shops, but Broome St. General Store is the only spot in California where you’ll find these beans. And from what we hear, New Yorkers marooned in LA are thrilled to finally find their beloved cup of Joe (and bag of beans) here on the West Coast.
