I thought it was just incredible timing that meant an EMPTY TJ’s parking lot, but it turned out power was down at the Trader Joe’s at 3rd & La Brea and the Ralphs supermarket across the street.
Must be reeeally localized, because the whole PetCo/Lamps Plus/Casting Studios warehouse I came from not 25 yards away was fully powered and open for bidness.
Oh–and that furniture store/artifacts place was open, too. But it’s still having that 1/2 off moving sale…
I’m just gonna take a shot in the dark and say that the transformer that services those two particular buildings blew.
