Let’s take a moment to admire local architecture, shall we?
Above is Thomas D. Harvey Realty on Valencia between 21st and 22nd. The yellow tile and gold accents take my breath away on a regular basis. My bf and I are planning on getting rich, buying this gem, leaving it untouched, and turning it into a bar. You’d take your out-of-town friends here and they’d be like “Okay, I don’t get it… Where’s the bar?” and you’d be all, “Ha. This IS the bar.”
See you guys at the Harvey, circa 2k25.

If you were interested… I bet it would be easy to find a realtor.
I was walking past the other day and really noticed the yellow tiles. I think they must have done a wash or something because I’ve been walking by for 10 years and can’t say I really noticed it that much until this week… and then this post. Hmmmm.
brilliant!
i think about the gold letters all the time.
place is tits. TITS>
I love this place too and I love your idea. Would be better than Bourbon and Branch as a local secret because _nobody_ would willingly go into a Realtor’s office.
No stupid passwords at the Harvey, either! Thanks for your support, Rog.
but that’s one of omer’s stages!
It’s true! http://missionmission.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/no-love-for-omer/
In this hypothetical bar, Omer should have a weekly happy hour set on Mondays.
I’ve always thought that it was a great spot to light up out of the wind
I love this place!
The guy has stacks and stacks of paperwork everywhere, still not running a business in the 21st century.
On nice days he has classical music pouring out the windows.
Yeah thats super dope
