When Nook Sales Experts match a buyer with their dream home, the only thing as important as architectural style is the neighborhood. That’s why we’re bringing you the #NookNeighborhoods series, where every Wednesday you’ll find cool history and culture to make sure you don’t overlook an area that could have the best nook for you.
There’s almost no better way to understand the feel and underlying vibe of a nook than by walking around, leaving the GPS in your pocket until you come to a neat little cafe or wine bar, then get your bearings before deciding on a new direction. The Brickell neighborhood in Miami is a wonderful place to find hidden joys, as the largest financial district in South Florida that is quickly growing to welcome its growing

It’s hard to keep up with all the fun that you can experience in our nook neighborhoods, but here’s a highlights guide to 2018 festivals:
FEB: LA Cookie Con and Sweets Show, Feb 10 & 11, Anaheim Convention Center.
WIth Celebrity TV Chefs, the Founder of My Cupcake Addiction and Nerdy Nummies vlogger in attendance...oh, you don’t care about the celebrities? Where are the cookies, you ask?

You know you’re in America when the historic districts are around 200 years old, and you know you’re in California when you celebrate an old town built up just before the turn of the twentieth century. Perhaps that’s why we enjoy the quaint feel of Old Town Tustin, whose Main Street still inhabits the historic buildings from the town’s founding in the 1880s.
Tustin City was originally laid out by Nelson O. Stafford through
Here at Nook, we have a passion for people, places, and properties. There is a reason that we say people first, for what makes a neighborhood special if not the people who live there?

Watch out, because this blog is bound to make you hungry.
In a city of freelancers and Hollywood meetings, there are times you need a healthy gluten and dairy free choice, there are times you need a quick coffee and there are other times -- that you need the House of Pies.
An invitation to the House of Pies is not to be taken lightly. And let's be honest here, no one goes there for the dinner options. Here
Movie theaters hold such an iconic place in America’s cultural landscape that it’s hard to imagine a time without them. What began in 1894 with a short kinetoscope viewer in a New York City phonograph store, then growing with the vaudeville movement at the turn of the century, the movie palace created its own style and architectural impact on each city’s scene.
Since movies and popcorn go together like avocado and toast, we thought that National Popcorn Day would be a fun time to launch into some fast facts about movie theaters and their architecture, starting in our own Nook Neighborhoods. Even the LA Zoo gets festive for this tasty holiday!
In 1923 it was built as the Linda Lea Vaudeville House, also recently known as the ImaginAsian

Cannery Beach has been described as SoHo New York meets beach life meets San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf. That’s a lot of personality to pack into an 8 block radius in Newport Beach. Now, the ocean plays a large role in that vibe; it is as big a part of this neighborhood’s landscape and charm as the modern loft living. When they say “Dock and Dine,” they really mean it; many lofts and restaurants have a place to hitch up

I don’t know anyone who needs an excuse to visit San Diego, but if you’ve been waiting for one, January 21-28 is Restaurant Week. That means that over 180 restaurants offer special deals on menu items - some starting as low as $10 for two-course meals or $20 for three courses. Don’t underestimate the deliciousness that can fit into a course: The Shores touts Sesame Coriander Salmon, Wild Shrimp, Jade Pesto Risotto
There are parades and then there are meaningful community events. There are empty celebrations and there are neighborhood collaborations that truly get to the heart of civic service. In both cases, Long Beach’s Martin Luther King Jr.’s Parade and Celebration embody the latter.
Of course, The City of Long Beach and Councilmember Dee Andrews of the Sixth District are involved, but then you have the group called What’s Next Now, whose mission is to “unite people and resources to build a stronger, healthier community”. With programs to relieve poverty, advance education and youth/child services, support to seniors and the disabled, and the advancement of health, environment and the arts, this group of citizens live King’s wishes for us all.
