Two Mile Island
That's the headline on Michael Collins' latest cover story in CityBeat about environmental carnage at the old Rocketdyne facility in the Santa Susana Mountains, one ridge west of the Valley. He found one street near the former rocket test ground where three people have rare bladder cancers. The story peg is that housing tracts are popping up within two miles of the site, thus the headline. Also in City Beat, Greg Yano reports on the possible eviction of the Lucy Florence Coffeehouse in Leimert Park.
