I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    I wonder if this is referring to some post-Hollywood squatters, rather than Hollywood Video.

    Looks just like the sign I saw at Baja Fresh in Fremont when they shut down.

    This is happening across the nation. Hollywood Video has been wholesale defaulting on leases in several states.

    Being a Whole Foods shopper, my daughter and I usually stop in at the Hollywood Video location upstairs from WF. Finally finding a parking space, we hiked up the escalator and BAM – closed. It had a note to check out their 45th Street store. Sweet! Uh yeah – not so sweet when we made the drive over and foiled again.

    It’s probably for the best – Scarecrow Video – here we come!
