Los Angeles Times: “The daylong festivities, which were slated to include performances by the Black Eyed Peas and Native American rock group Redbone, included a sunrise ceremony, a 5K run, and a Native American powwow. Addressing a few hundred people from the stage at the foot of City Hall, [City councilman Mitch] O’Farrell said Los Angeles is the largest city to adopt Indigenous Peoples Day in place of Columbus Day.” https://lat.ms/2ypbsfJ

Eater Los Angeles: “Perhaps most interesting to the project so far is the talent behind it, including two particular names: Joseph Shuldiner and Kevin West. They’re the ones largely responsible for the complete overhaul at Grand Central Market, bringing in varied vendors and winning awards along the way. Those two will be responsible for leasing at the new Santee Passage property, and lease negotiations are reportedly underway already.”
