In late November, it was reported that the iconic Los Angeles diner would be replaced by a Raising Cane’s in 2027 when the building’s lease expired.
While the building was set to transform into the fast-food chain known for its sauce, the new owners said they planned to maintain its historic design, which first opened its doors in 1957.
On Thursday night, the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission was scheduled to hear a proposed plan from Raising Cane’s. Instead, they wrote a letter expressing a change of plan after they heard the community’s concerns.
