Not Balboa Island, Orange County. Rather, Marina Del Rey which is about 50 miles north of Balboa. The patio of this landmark snack shack used for the filming of Arrested Development (top) is in the Fisherman's Village that is located about 10 minutes South of LAX, for you travelers.
If you watch "Arrested Development," you get it. If you don't watch "Arrested Development," you should. (Thanks, Karen, for the pocket paintjob!)
I have some pens and pencils.
A sketchbook.
And a head full of quotes, lyrics and the like.

Peter II of Savoy had a fortification built on a hill in the first half of the 13th century. His daughter Béatrice de Faucigny made it her residence and in 1262 endowed the adjacent town with privileges. In 1283, she gave the new town the name of Bonneville.
Since some years, thanks to the association's volunteers the city is known for the "Plein feux Festival", a three-day funky festival in the city center. After a two-year absence due to Covid, 2022 marked the return of the festival.

"(Buster is) going to be all right."
Any Arrested Development fans out there will get the joke. I came across this sign at a Taco Del Mar the other day while picking up a burrito and I made a special trip back there with my camera to record this masterpiece. So amazing...
This was amazing. Both Peter and this guy Joey showed up as Tobias - with cutoffs and all. AND both ceremonially de-pantsed upon walking in the door to Cassie's house saying, "do these effectively hide my thunder?"

Brush and ink, with the logo cut out of zipatone patterns.
Done by Joëlle Jones for one Jamie S. Rich for Christmas, 2008.
This is actually a photo of it taken through a glass frame, no flash. It's too large for my scanner, I need to take it and have a photocopy made and shrunk down at some point to do a proper scan. The biggest problem with this photo is the image fades to the right. Strangely, the photos I took of it out of the frame had way more problems.
Evening

Court Street, Boston Massachusetts
NOTE: I went home a different way that evening. Usually I went through City Hall Plaza.

EAST JERSEY STATE PRISON (formally Rahway Prison)
From NJ State Registry site -
New Jersey State Reformatory (East Jersey State Prison) (ID#3341)
Rahway Avenue
SHPO Opinion: 12/12/1991
Please view large to enjoy the shot as I originally saw it :) farm3.static.flickr.com/2117/2410517665_712f734374_b.jpg
EJSP provides maximum, medium and minimum security programs for adult male offenders. The Bureau of State Use Industries/DEPTCOR operates clothing, metal fabrication and furniture shops in the facility.
Some Quotes from Wiki
The prison is known for three high-profile professional boxers who were at one time incarcerated there. Former middleweight contender Rubin Carter, freed in 1985 after being sentenced to two consecutive life terms, was featured in the 1975 Bob Dylan song "Hurricane" and the 1999 film The Hurricane.[26] Dwight Muhammad Qawi, became a two-time world champion after leaving Rahway. A contemporary of Qawi, James Scott, was a title contender of the same era who fought many times inside the prison itself, including a fight against Qawi in 1981.
The prison served as the filming location for the documentary Scared Straight! The prison is also the birthplace of the Lifers' Group, in which prison inmates participate in a government-sponsored rap music program, recording such songs as "The Real Deal" and "Belly of the Beast" to discourage children from becoming criminals.
The prison's distinctive architecture, with its large dome and imposing metal gates, has appeared in many films including Lock Up, Crazy Joe, Rounders, Malcolm X , He Got Game, The Hurricane, and Ocean's Eleven.
The prison is mentioned in the beginning of episode 104 of Arrested Development. George Bluth is concerned for his prison's softball team because they are "Playing Rahway next week."
"Rahway Prison" is mentioned in the lyrics of the Traveling Wilburys 1988 song "Tweeter and the Monkey Man", and "Rahway State" is mentioned in the lyrics of the East River Pipe song "Where Does All The Money Go?".
"The prison can also be seen at the end of the remake of the 2001 remake of ocean's eleven (2001)."
