  1. Why the city chooses to block off cross streets so far in advance of parades and protests is baffling to me.
  2. This one slipped under my radar. Panamanian Independence Day parade has Broadway closed.
  3. New round of Regional Connector meetings kicks off Downtown Saturday :: http://bdtwn.com/4832
  4. Recap from the false alarm at 5th and Grand: http://bdtwn.com/4830
  5. @nuELLE He was cool. I think he's probably in here fairly often.
  6. Keyshawn Johnson just walked into the Starbucks at L.A. Live and asked if they had change for a $100 bill. "That's all I have."
  7. @amanda_mae Haven't heard anything like that. 5th and Grand was definitely a suspicious package.
  8. 5th street is the last to clear up. Closed at Hill. Most everything else is reopened.
  9. RT @lainegrace: False alarm! It's apparently over, everything reopened. To quote a coworker, "The homeless guy came to pick up his stuff?"
  10. LAPD says the package is a shopping cart, and that bomb squad is enroute.
  11. RT @lainegrace: Suspicious pkg w/ Obama pic / Bible attached, liquids.
  12. RT @jfrog: @blogdowntown a suspicious package outside us bank tower (where I work)
  13. Tip that LAPD has the intersection of 5th and Grand closed off. Anyone know what's up?
  14. Overcrowding means that those charged with felony animal cruelty are released without posting bail :: http://bdtwn.com/4829
  15. Sound check inside the Palace theater for Julian Casablancas' show tomorrow night is loud all the way on Spring street.
  16. Load in at Clifton's for some sort of shoot involving a large dinosaur head.
  17. Crowds at LA Live are arriving for the Kings and for R Kelly. Very different looks.
  18. @pezzillo filming conditions were supposed to be there next week, not this week.
  19. Re: traffic RT @tincanorange: I've got your answer, but you'll have to wait for @LAist tomorrow. Been working on something about just that!
  20. @archie4oz not sure. The one I saw was painted Local, but running a rapid (768? Fuzzy memory).
