E. John Co., a development firm in Vancouver, Wash., is poised to continue investing in the Northwest 23rd Avenue area in Portland. It has three projects in the works in the trendy neighborhood and it owns another lot there that it hopes to redevelop soon.

Orange Mound, Tennessee, of which Memphis is a suburb," is how Mary Mitchell and other proud residents of the South Memphis neighborhood refer to their location on the map.
While pride in Memphis is at an all-time high, becoming at long last fashionable and shouted from the virtual mountaintop of social media networks, there has been a more grass-roots effort sprouting in the concrete cracks of South Memphis and spread along vines of memory, lore and nonprofit organizations.

Once upon a time, going to the movies in the San Gabriel Valley didn't always involve locating the nearest megaplex, purchasing tickets online and arriving in time to order a pack of Raisinets from a touch-screen kiosk.

theaters and drive-ins that thrived in decades when a trip ... Laemmle Theatres opened the single-screen Esquire Theater in 1964. Although the Esquire has come and...

No group in this city has been as consistently undernourished and underappreciated as the jazz community." With those words, Philadelphia Weekly introduced its "first annual" jazz issue, dated Dec. 13,1995. The centerpiece was Elena Bouvier's huge photo spread "A Great Day in Philadelphia," modeled on Art Kane's classic 1958 shoot for Esquire that inspired the documentary A Great Day in Harlem. It seemed this multigenerational jazz family, assembled for a group portrait outside the John Coltrane House on North 33rd Street, was finally getting its due.

Occasionally my female clients buy gift certificates for their husbands who could use a makeover. But it also happened close to home with my partner Russ. We were on a weekend getaway in Southern California. We caught a matinee movie and were walking out of the theater when out of the blue he said, "You never take me shopping." Hearing that as an opportunity, I said, "Let's go!" Lucky for me there was a Macy's half-a-block away. I steered us quickly to the men's department. I didn't want to give him a chance to back out. We walked the whole depart- ment. Then I sent him to the dressing room and went hunting for great pieces that would fit his lifestyle. In no time he had the s...
