AND IT LOOKS like we're getting a second one, smoking distance from the first. Here's what's known about the marijuana dispensary already open for business in Atwater Village:
- Friendly Collective (sometimes LA Collective)
- 3405 Glendale Blvd., Suite B
- Operating since February 2009, perhaps earlier
- Open 7 days a week (10am to 8pm Mon-Sat, to 6pm Sun)
- Has a Money Back Guarantee: "Purchase one of our two highest grade medications ($30/gram) with a money back guarantee. If you try the medication and don't care for it, you can return 75% of the original quantity and get 100% of your money back"
- Owned by Joseph Ron Ramirez, according to Los Angeles City Clerk
- Cited by the City for failing to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy, which may include installing wheelchair access and on-site parking, like a "drugstore" would have
A reader confirms (on 4/20, no less): "It's going to be a medical marijuana pharmacy! Is that really what we need to bring change to the village? Unbelievable. All that time the Leasing sign was posted I was hoping for a nice cafe, deli, book shop, anything besides a bloody marijuana pharmacy!"
Now, what about that new brownie place...

i, for one, welcome this.
How appropriate for today's date.
I don't really think a medical marijuana facility should be placed an an area that is usually filled with teenagers and families. Maybe the famed munchies will boost subway sells.
I should open a bagel shop next door.
I bet cold stone is upset now. i say, welcome to the neighborhood. if people need medicinal marijuana, it should be available. period.
Right, because marijuana is bad, and so are the people who use it.
Give me a break. I think if Atwater wants to remain progressive then this is a welcome addition to the neighborhood.
I'll take a dispensary over a Starbucks or a check cashing place any day of the week!
dude you should totally open a bagel shop!!!!!!
