Theatre recognized, but fight to save site continues
By Billy Taylor
From p. 4, Section 2, of the September 2021 Larchmont Chronicle:
The Fairfax Theatre was recently nominated to the National Register of Historic Places, but because the owner objects to the designation, the battle to preserve the 1929 theater continues.
The California State Historical Resources Commission (SHRC) voted unanimously July 30 to nominate the Fairfax Theatre to the National Register following a presentation by Steven Luftman. The building ownerâs legal representation, Bill Delvac, argued at the meeting that the building no longer maintained integrity as a theater â but his assertion was not accepted by the Commission.

Housing solutions are on a fast track, says leader at PATH
By Talia Abrahamson
From p. 7 of the September 2021 Larchmont Chronicle:
Housing-forward, person-centered solutions to homelessness have been Tessa Madden Stormsâs work for the past decade.
Madden Storms, who lives in Windsor Village, is the senior director of philanthropy at PATH (People Assisting The Homeless) and the regional director of PATH Santa Barbara.
âCertainly, the geographical change of pace of going on up to Santa Barbara keeps me on my toes,â Madden Storms laughed.
In her two roles at PATH, she helps individuals experiencing homelessness in both Santa Barbara and greater California. Born in Wichita, Kansas, Madden Storms moved to California in order to attend USC, where she earned a bachelor of arts degree in political science, with minors in nonprofit and organizational management.

By Caroline Tracy
From p. 10 of the September 2021 Larchmont Chronicle:
After 17 months of remote or hybrid school, campuses across Los Angeles County have resumed in-person learning for the 2021 / 2022 calendar year. For many in our community, this is a welcome turn of events, but it does not come without concerns. The surge in COVID-19 cases (including breakthrough cases) spurred by the Delta variant has thrown many parents into a renewed state of caution. Hereâs how a handful of locals (our neighbors) are feeling about the state of things right now:

Will sympathy bring success for Giorgio?
By Helene Seifer
From p. 1 of the September 2021 Larchmont Chronicle:
âI need my money,â insists Giorgio, the 56-year-old who visits Larchmont Boulevard daily with a shopping cart filled with his meager possessions. âItâs an obligation! According to the law!â he shouts, referring to some combination of unemployment, Social Security and disability compensation he says he used to get until he received an unsigned letter from a government official denying him further payments.
Giorgio tells a long saga about his government benefits, involving first being sent to a post office to collect his checks, then to the Social Security office, then to a payday advance store. About 18 months ago, Giorgio reports, he got that cessation of benefits letter and checks stopped coming.

Parents and dancers alike are âOn cloud nine,â according to mom Kate Cury of La Brea Hancock, whose daughter Annabel, 12, attends the school. âIt was incredible for my daughter to go from home to her chosen family,â says Ms. Cury.

Home Ground: A splash of cold witch hazel: Raymond Chandlerâs prose
By Paula Panich
From p. 2, Section 2, of the September 2021 Larchmont Chronicle:
Raymond Chandler, who some people consider the best writer of detective novels in English, didnât like that sort of hyperbole at all. He thought it was just âcriticsâ jargon,â this separating works of literature into this sort, or that sort.
But last week, bored and recovering from illness, I reached out to my shelf, and for no particular reason, âThe Long Goodbye,â Chandlerâs 1953 novel, came to hand. I began rereading:

A neighborhood town hall meeting hosted by Atlanta-based developer Domos Coliving attracted more than 30 local residents last month to hear details of plans to renovate the apartment building at 410 N. Rossmore Ave.
National Public Radioâs Frances Anderton, host of the KCRW show âDnA: Design and Architecture,â was the eventâs moderator.

Domos Co-Founder Daniel Alexander was expected, but he had to cancel due to a family emergency.
