THE NEW LOOK MONTEREY PARK
If you haven't noticed, Monterey Park is going for a new look. The Edwards movie theater by NBC where I watched Karate Kid and Gremlins and Batman is no more. The restaurant my dad liked to go to on Atlantic by the 10 freeway is also no more.
In their places, new shopping centers will go up with new movie theaters, new gyms, new restaurants, and fewer "mom and pop" shops.
It's going to be a new look Monterey Park. But rest assured, Cascade Park is still there!

I know the new businesses will generate more money and hype for Monterey Park, but I will miss those "mom and pop shops."
It's all about getting more $ and "Face" for the city. They are trying to play "catch up" with all the neighboring cool cities (but not E. LA or Montebello or Rosemead fo sure! :P).
Where's all the green space going to though? I ask as an urban gardener!

Actually, Montebello Town Center seems to be getting more and more "hip." Besides, Montebello has Costco... What more needs to be said?!?!?! =)
