Working with neighboring music, film and art establishments, both courtyard and adjoining gallery will present a rotating cast of local musicians, photographers and artists. And, every few months the Urban Outfitters store will feature one-off installations by a new designer.

To support the Hollywood nightlife, the stores are open until 11pm, with a tapas bar open until midnight. Planning is also in process to host a weekly vintage flea market in the courtyard, surely to attract the many shoppers already visiting the neighboring Hollywood Farmer’s market on the weekends.
