I was visiting PS from Los Angeles today- my mother is a local and brought me in there as we were shopping for a cool lamp. We walked into a small room where a white Middle aged man welcomed us warmly. He was so friendly and asked if we were local. I mentioned that I was just visiting from LA. He then went on to say he grew up in Hancock Park, but then moved to Culver City... and then he looked around as to make sure nobody else was listening and said "but we moved out because it became too dark" ( and he winked at me)... then he went onto say that he heard Hancock Park had "gotten too dark" as well.

Read moreAmazing little place. Didn't get to stick around as long as we would have liked because it was just way too hot, but we still found some treasures. The gentlemen that ran the place were lovely and more than willing to make a deal with us. Felt very welcome and comfortable. We were here for a visit so we asked for some recommendations of things to see, especially mid-century houses, and one of them went as far as to make us a hand written map to see a cool development of unique houses nearby. Definitely helped make our trip very pleasant, despite the...
