As mentioned last week, Neighborhood Grinds has opened a second location on the Redondo Beach Pier. Owner Fred Lie told Patch that he expects to hold a grand opening party once a fire pit is installed at the location, which should happen "in the next couple of weeks."

Patch has received more information about the fate of Redondo Hair & Beauty Supply and Harmony Works. The two stores occupy the building at 1705 S. Catalina Ave. in Riviera Village. The building was purchased at the end of 2012, and both tenants were given until June 1 to vacate the premises. It's not yet known what will go into the building; however, both businesses are searching for new locations.
