Angry Racist Silver Toyota Prius Driver that frequents Woodbury Town Center

Couple weeks ago on a Friday evening, saw this Silver Prius screaming at a dude for crossing the street from the Chipotle/First Class Pizza to the parking lot towards Home Depot. Mind you that the dude crossing the street did not cut him off, he started walking across when the Prius driver was no where near close. Prius driver screamed at him a racial slur for Asian people as he drove by him.

Today this evening, saw the silver Toyota Prius with the guy screaming at a woman in a Tesla this time, pretty sure it's the same dude because his voice is similar. Yelling at her to learn how to drive and etc. This happened on the intersection exit to Irvine Blvd by Chik-fil-a.

So I'm pretty sure this dude either works in Woodbury Town Center or frequents this area and wanted to let you guys be aware if you frequent Woodbury Town Center in the evening time, it happened twice so far around the Chipotle/Chik-fil-a area. Dude's got an anger issue or something.

Something new at Sand Canyon Plaza?

This standalone building close to Starbucks at Sand Canyon Plaza has been empty for years. I believe it was a bank before. There’s a lot of construction around it. Does anyone know what this is going to be?

Cypress village move-in nightmare

Yes I know Irvine Company = Bad is a meme, however this seems a bit ridiculous and I’m wondering if anyone else has dealt with something similar.

We have just moved in to Cypress Village Apartments and immediately the day after inspection (when their onsite staff were present), we discovered that the fiber cables were severed by their contractors and now require construction and repairs.

We are now entering week two of our lease with an open wall, ongoing maintenance/contractors in and out of our apartment leaving dirt and dust, all while paying for the privilege. The leasing office has been quite unhelpful as they have still yet to give us a resolution date, only saying “things are moving.” It does not feel like they see this as a high priority.

I am wondering if I have any recourse or if anyone else has had similar issues and figured out a way to get things resolved quickly with them. Leasing originally mentioned rent remediation, but now it seems to have shifted toward “you can transfer units or cancel.” And even our response to that seemingly went into the void.

And if no recourse is possible let this serve as a warning, the contractors they use are absolutely awful (even the fiber teams agree), so if possible look at the unit THOROUGHLY before you sign.

(More) Package Thieves in Irvine

Hoping to bring awareness, or if anyone recognizes these people, as I just had my package stolen off our doorstep by these random thieves this morning at 6:46am. Amazon dropped it off at 6:00am and I noticed they were driving up and down the residence stealing from other residents as well. I would have loved to confront them head-on, but I didn’t want to take a chance on any sort of violent confrontation.

And yes I have filed a police report as well.

Mailed 4 times a year. This one weighs in at 120 pages.

Irvine has a budget shortfall. Let's start by ending this massive printed guide sent to all Irvine households. Is it of any use? Isn't it easier to look up programs online?

Mama Ma’s Kitchen - University Park Plaza

Mama Ma’s Kitchen just opened and took over the space where Ever After Tea Room was. Looks like Northern Chinese cuisine like dumplings, noodles, buns, hot pot.

Woodbridge beach clubs & guests

Woodbridge neighbors - does anyone know about the guest policy (i.e. 15 registered guests - first 5 free, next 10 guests at $8pp) at the beach clubs? How does it all work?

I was told there are Facility Investigators who patrol around and check your party and if they're registered. This seems weird and disruptive, especially if you already paid for your guests. Anyone experience this / know what it's like? And what are the Gate Guards for if they have Facility investigators?

HOA said they only give out 3 guest policies per day, and they are popular so I better wait at the office before they open to ensure I get a guest policy if I really want my party on a certain day. They said sometimes there's a line out the door. This whole process seems stressful...Is this true?

Debating if I should have the party here or elsewhere. Thanks!

Del Taco on Main St.?

RIP!

I wonder why they decided to take it out?

I few years ago I stayed at the Marriott, across the street & walked over to this Del Taco. A very nice place & service.

Nowadays, it just sits as an empty building…..

Lost birth certificate

Hi, if anyone at the Orchard Hills/Woodbury shopping Centers (Ralphs, Pavillions, Trader Joe’s, Starbucks) happened to find a folded up birth certificate today, please DM me. If you can confirm details I will pay a reward to get it back. I think it fell out of my wallet. Stressed for obvious reasons. Grateful for any help.

Casual spots for a second date?

Trying to plan a second date. For the first date we just grabbed coffee and walked around Balboa island and it went pretty well.

Looking for something kinda casual (she mentioned coming over to my place on the first date but we ran out of time). Any little dinner spots that aren't too fancy/intense? There's not really any good movies out for this occasion, any other activities?

Coyote sighting...with video this time. Kinda too close for my comfort...

Pretty cool looking creatures. Scary, but not scary all at the same time.

It was a little leery of me so it went around me down in the creek.

Near Sand Canyon and Barranca.

Where can I still find AYCE KBBQ?

I used to go up to Red Hill in Tustin for KBBQ where you just grab the meat yourself to take back to the table. No need for waiters to enter the equation! I don't care for the premium atmosphere either, I just want selection and a flat price. Any recommendations?

Testing my commute on bike and had a question!

This is on Alton, right after Technology W. and in front you can see the on ramp for 5N. Staying on the right as a bicyclist means I'll have to go all the way to the end and cross over at the crosswalk up ahead (which is totally fine!) But is this correct?

I'm still new to bicycling and wanted to start commuting by bike because gas prices now are ATROCIOUS... so I just want to make sure I'm following the rules of the road. Thank you!

Lost Wallet in Woodbridge area?

I know this is an absolute long shot, but has anybody found a wallet in the Woodbridge area within the last 24-48 hours? Slim and sleek black wallet, barely any cash inside, maybe 10 bucks, but has a few cards, with my licenses. The cards are locked, but I desperately need my ID. Just trying to see if I can get lucky on here
