There are more events going on for a few more days: Click here to continue reading Yelp’s 10-day Passport to Atwater Village starts today » The median on Saturday, after day one of cleaning Atwater Village’s Glendale Boulevard is a main thoroughfare for all things Atwater Village – the famous Wolf Dog Boutique, the now-defunct but newsworthy marijuana dispensaries, up-and-coming new businesses, and even the site of our neighborhood Christmas tree. Last weekend residents gathered on the median of the high-traffic corridor for a neighborhood cleanup and landscaping – all thanks to The Clean and Connected Grant from Council District 13. The cleanup continued on Sunday as well, despite a great turnout by committed residents and activist. And the work continues on Saturday, October 8, 2011 at 9:00 am. Bring your gloves and help finish this great project! Click here for photos from the Atwater Village Neighborhood Council, and here for photos on the Friends of Atwater Village Facebook page.
