Back in December of 2012, I told you about a new healthy café that had just arrived at 1426 Montana Ave. #5 in Santa Monica. Since then, Pulse Café had made quite a sensation among the yoga crowd with its signature hot smoothies and organic boba. Sadly however, it appears that Pulse Café has given up the ghost, possibly due to stiff competition from nearby Beaming, Kye’s, and any number of other juice joints that crowd the street. The space has been cleared out and there are prominent “for lease” signs in the window. I’ll keep my eye out for replacements…

What’s going up on the soon-to-be-closing Wilshire West Car Wash and empty lot at 23rd and Wilshire? Noticed a pending demo sign for 30,000 sq feet of retail and condos…
