DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — I've forgotten to mention this since the flyer arrived in my mailbox a couple weeks ago, but on Saturday, April 3rd, the LA Conservancy is going to be hosting Spring on Spring, a special walking tour covering some not usually accessible locations. Included:

• Lofts at the Douglas and Arcade buildings
• The Hotel El Dorado
• The Pacific Stock Exchange / Nightclub
• LA Times building
• Art galleries along the route
• "and much more"

I'm planning to attend, particularly to see the Arcade and the Stock Exchange. I'm sure the $25 member fee isn't all too much more than the cover to get in there on any given weekend.
