Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Since last year, we've been following the first Los Angeles project of This Old House, the venerable public TV home renovation show. We chatted with carpenter Norm Abram and host Kevin O'Connor when they were soliciting proposals here. We announced their pick of a Spanish Revival home in Silverlake. We visited the job site and climbed up on the roof for a lesson in tiling. And now, even though they've just started running the LA episodes on KOCE, the construction phase is done. Off-Ramp went to the wrap party Thursday night to talk with the owners.
