DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — I got a public hearing notice in the mail this weekend. I like getting those, since it means something fun is coming.

This time the subject is the PE Building applying for liquor licenses. And I do mean licenses… Seems their strategy is to apply for everything all at once. Included:

  • 110 E. 6th – Bar (14 seats) / Lounge (88 seats); 2,475 sq. ft.
  • 126 E. 6th – Cafe (95 seats); 3,225 sq. ft.
  • 600 S. Main – Restaurant (186 seats); 5,854 sq. ft.
  • 608 S. Main – Gourmet Shop; 726 sq. ft.
  • 601 S. Los Angeles – Cafe (89 seats); 2,531 sq. ft.
  • Rooftop pool/lounge/special events center/rotunda

They’re also going for various cafe entertainment licenses, etc (to allow for live entertainment and “incidental patron dancing”). The public hearing is June 22nd at 2pm in City Hall room 1020.

gilmore did the same thing for the old bank district a few months ago. even situation normal, the clothing store (which must do great online business, because i’ve never seen a customer there), was part of the application.

jim: Yeah, I think it’s a sort of cover your bases thing, so that then you can shop the space to tenants and tell them the license is already there. That’s a huge plus rather than having to go through the process and delay your opening.

As a resident of PE Lofts, I say: Bring it on. Yesterday. Patience is not one of my virtues.

I’ll try to be there at the public hearing, just in case anyone tries to complain…

Hopefully having bars on the ground floor will keep the all night parties off the roof.
