LAV Business in the news and changes

Los Altos Village businesses in limelight
In Councilman Daryl Supernaw's Weekly Newsletter this week, our 4th District Councilman highlights the television and print stories several Los Altos Village businesses have received.

LAV Chronic Taco's Wee Man and Takeru Kobayash
The Los Altos Village Chronic Tacos located at the Los Altos Market Center-North, is featured in a taco eating contest between KTLA's entertainment reporter Doug Kolk and actor Dolph Lungren (aka- Captian Ivan Drago of Rocky fame) who is billed as the European Taco Eating Champ.  In the segment filmed last week at Chronic Tacos, Kolk is trained by Japanese world eating champion Takeru Kobayash. Councilman Supernaw provides the link to the KTLA video in his newsletter.

 Business Changes at Los Altos Market Center
The Mountain View Goodyear at the Los Altos Market Center-South received new signage that now prominently  displays its service owners brand over the tire brand.



One block south of the Mountain View Tire store is the former Los Altos Village Bellflower Shell- that at one time was a Union 76 gas station. The Shell station is now returning to the Union 76 branding.  That's right, just months after a Shell remodel- the station dropped Shell, went generic and is now being remodeled again to the Union 76 brand.  

Since the Los Altos Market Center was built by Lloyd Whaley, the northwest corner of Abbeyfield and Bellflower has been a gas service station. 


Ten years ago, in January of 2007, the then Los Altos Union 76 was one of the last local 76 branded service stations to replace the iconic round 76 sign moniker.
