liquor comes to north Pasadena
Little bit of news I found at the Pasadena Citizen:
North Pasadena gets first liquor license
When Proposition 1 passed last November, one convenience store was ready.
The proposition allowed for sales of beer and wine for off-premises consumption in North Pasadena which allows for sales of beer and wine for off-premises consumption in north Pasadena.
The Neighborhood Shop, at 2104 Strawberry Road, received its wine and beer license Wednesday and owners were eager to get started on the sales. This store is the first to sell beer and wine on the north side of town. Businesses on the south side of Pasadena were already allowed to sell alcohol.

The alcohol will be placed in the back of the store so it will be out of the way of children that come into the store.

Interesting. I wonder what this means for Pasadena, and its future.
