Popular Coffeehouse Receives Eviction Notices
From Times Staff Reports
The owners of Lucy Florence Coffee House were served eviction notices Tuesday after a judge ruled against them in a lawsuit brought by their landlord.
The coffeehouse, restaurant and theater owned by Richard and Ron Harris in a complex on Degnan Boulevard were part of a push to redevelop Leimert Park’s African American arts scene after the 1992 riots.
A suit filed by Community Build Inc. claimed the brothers didn’t pay rent or maintain insurance. Last month, a judge ruled in Community Build’s favor.
