7-Eleven sign goes up on Glendale Boulevard location

Despite community opposition to the new 7-Eleven store in a strip mall at Glendale Boulevard and Berkeley Avenue in Echo Park, the store has gone full steam ahead. It’s been under construction for a couple of months now, but the sign went up in the past couple of days. Strangely, we haven’t yet been able to track down any license granted to the location by the California Alcohol Beverage Control, a permit that the store will really need to sell beer and wine off-site. And a 7-Eleven without beer and wine sales wouldn’t be a very attractive opportunity for the brand.

   The representatives of this particular project had expressed disinterest if they weren’t going to get a beer and wine license

   Echo Park Security Association, which supported the neighbors in their opposition to the license, recently received a copy of the city zoning administration decision to deny a permit to sell beer and wine at the 7-Eleven. The Case is ZA-2011-1133(CUB)(CU). It should be noted that 7-Eleven has until September 28 to file an appeal.

   7-Eleven is nothing more than a pile of crap. Those poor residents.
