Drone Patrol by the noisy neighbors? Or by their Private Security Operatives?
I think this is brilliant, an easy walk from State St. or people can park in the Ortega Street public lot. The prices seem reasonable. Can't wait.
I’m so tired of smash burgers. They’re like burger jerky. I want a thick, juicy burger.
Will the string light police be peeking over backyard hedges?
Great, yet another burger joint.
Hey, you know what we also need more of? How about Mexican food?!
I support the project. But an AB 1287 project would be even better: same building envelope, but 120 instead of 90 units. The 55 units without parking would all rent at moderate or lower levels. The limited parking would likely improve (not worsen) local parking congestion.
It’s unofficially Spacks Street, in honor of SB’s first Poet Laureate.
As a Venice transplant, this is EXCELLENT news. Smash burgers don’t get any better than this and DoorDash just got a whole lot brighter.
Clearly stated that it’s optional.
Hamburgers to go? Or will some of the space in the parking lot be repurposed for tables?
Wow! great reporting!
I welcome a $ 4 cheeseburger!
State and Gutierrez??
If the staff at the WinDow see a face and hands smooshed against the glass, it’s just me waiting for the opening 
Looks to me like a relic from the now defunct Casa Blanca Restaurant and Cantina at 330 State Street ... designed by my favorite architect, the wonderful Jeff Shelton.
Wow, this is amazing news. The best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had was from the Win-dow in Venice.
the "egg" is on the construction site at the SE corner of State St and E Gutierrez St.

Thanks, updated the text.
Not sure it is significant, but 2760 Sycamore Canyon sold for 9M on 10/3/24 - maybe owners had a change of heart.
When we were little over on bath five hundred block. Ernie's was the place had the best fries. They're the original He would see us messing around outside and oops.Right before closing he would drop fries. Well kids I can't eat all these fries make bags for each of us. Virgil Vasquez was the owner and he.Also had his barbershop Behind the shop.
