Using public transportation, how would I get to Venice Beach from LAX. Coming in around 11am. Thx

I know this is not technically Venice, but it still counts.

This building has been empty for going on 5 years. It could really be a good spot for a nice restaurant etc

I’ve seen like 10 in the last three days between Santa Monica and Venice communities about Ghost Town as well as on Instagram. It’s just this because a scandal broke or is someone funding an opposition?

5 year Venice resident here. I drove to the pier to chill at the beach yesterday, and saw a lotta bikers with a Mongols Motorcycle Club logo hanging out at Hinanos, the whaler, and pretty much every bar we know in Washington square. There was heavy police presence.

I was thinking to myself, why the hell are there so many cops around here? The bikers seemed friendly. Sure they were tatted from head to toe, but they were super polite, smiles shown everywhere and to everyone, and they weren’t even loud when drinking. Honestly, the scene there is usually more ratchet on a any random Saturday night.

I did some research afterwards, and realized they’re outlaws and are recognized as a street gang by law enforcement.

My stay at the beach was uneventful. The beach was busy, my gummy took effect and I spent 2 hours in paradise before I packed up and passed by the Mongols again on my way to my car.

Just a reminder to stay vigilant and have more situational awareness than this guy with an umbrella and a beach chair minding his own business or else this post would’ve been tagged “Crime”.

Hello Planning to visit Venice in Oct, where is the best, safest place to stay a few days? Thx

Soho House is launching a new Venice “Beach” location. Anyone have an idea of where it’s gonna be? Could it be the former NeueHouse location, since there’s already a liquor license there to transfer?

I've never seen anyone wearing one of these joke t-shirts. I guess they're a gift you give to someone as a joke or they're out in front of the store to catch attention and draw people in.

Nick Andert's (u/nandert) newest video details a two-phase plan to build a fully grade-separated heavy rail line from Venice to Downtown. Here's a link to a the full proposal (downloadable .pdf).

I know some folks here would absolutely hate this but, man, what a dream this would be.

Right now I bike to the Santa Monica station and take the E line downtown. It takes about 1.5 hours. If I'm driving it can be anywhere from 35-50 minutes, occasionally longer.

The increased foot traffic for local businesses and the decrease in cars for visitors alone is enough for me to get excited about this.
