Chabad of North Hollywood Expansion Reapproved

Jewish Journal

Neighbors of Chabad of North Hollywood are unhappy with the construction of the building along Chandler Boulevard.

The Los Angeles City Council’s Planning and Land Use Management (PLUM) committee sided with supporters of an expansion project for the Chabad of North Hollywood on June 26, moving the partially completed project one step closer to reapproval, after an appeals court overturned a previous approval by the committee in May.

The walls of the concert hall nestled on a small side street in Brooklyn reverberate with the solid beats produced by a five-piece maple wood drum set. Lead singer and songwriter Perl Wolfe's warm voice rises and falls as her fingers dance gracefully across her Yamaha keyboard. The expressions on the faces of the all-female audience exude their intense enjoyment of the performance.
