The single-story building that houses The Smell (venue) is set for demolition. The purpose of this petition is to gather up signatures of individuals who are opposed to this action in order to maintain the volunteer-run venue open as it is an integral part of the L.A. music scene. Along with The Smell, many other businesses are also set to be destroyed in the process including the New Jalisco Bar and many others, as they are on the same block. Music, art, and well-known memories are set to become new additions to ever-growing concrete jungle as another parking structure in the heart of L.A..
