A casual pizza-by-the-slice spot near Calicraft Upstairs.

A small museum about Beats, hippies, protest movements and music, right where that history actually happened.

A tiny home, edible garden, chicken coop and goats, plus hands on exhibits about sustainable living.

A small playground by the streetcar tunnel, so a train-mad kid gets a climb and a look at the trains in one stop.

A family-run donut shop since 1960 that still makes everything from scratch, home of a giant challenge donut you try to finish in three hours.
