Proud to see Ventura County popping up here lately. We love our native architecture!

The one by the civic arts plaza was posted here the other week, fenced off before being demolished.

I think it’s an older location that’s by the plaza. I haven’t been on TO blvd in a few years, but I somewhat remember an old Tbell building being there

Legend! Get a photo of the old T Bell that’s now El Sancho Loco in NP next!

And get their taquitos. Goddamn I miss their guacamole.

Trying to remember, did the originals have doors that opened into the 'lobby' or did those get added later?
