Mike Johnson: Dripping with cool stuff. Great gallery in the back.
Matt Conrad: Coolest off the wall store in LA. It's like Target for hipsters.
Idea Monkey, Inc.: In 1924 Walt Disney rented this vacant lot for $10 a month. Here he did live action filming of child actors for his Alice Comedies, an early film series combining live action with hand animation.

Frances Thorarinsson: The best of scandinavia-- including Iceland!! It's a beautiful store with hard to find Nordic stuff. Where else can you find Barbapapa place mats, or Moomintroll mugs.
Jules S: If you want Ikea with class. Scandinavia with quirk, wide price range of beautiful and odd items: this is your place. Sorry, no frozen bags of meatballs at the end of the line.
techstudiomacandpcrepair.com: This is one of the best stores on the street. Amazing products.
