Farewell to Downtown Santa Monica

A couple of months ago the owners of our building on 2nd Street announced their plans to demolish the building and go "bigger and better." Arcade Hearing Aid Center moved into the "Arcade" style building in 1950 when it was brand new. After 62 years there, it is going to be a little emotional leaving.
The good news is we have found another location in Santa Monica and are already preparing for our grand re-opening on November 1st.
Our new location is 1911 Wilshire Blvd. near 20th Street. We believe this location will be more convenient for our valued patients as it is very close to both St. John's and Santa Monica/UCLA Hospitals and many of the worlds finest Doctors. There is parking available in the back and usually ample street parking as well. We feel very fortunate that this space was available. Our former space was a great location but it continues to get more congested and parking can be a huge issue.
As for our phone numbers, it appears we will not be able to keep the ones we have been using for over 60 years, because we are moving to a different zone in Santa Monica. At least for the first few months we can be reached thru the old numbers but eventually that will change. We will inform via our website www.arcadehearing.net and our patient newsletter.
We hope to make this move as seamless as possible and will be open our normal hours.
We invite everyone to come see our new location. See you soon!
Update! Our new phone number is (310)829-6444 and fax is (310)829-6777
We will be forwarding calls from our old number for a few months if you forget but eventually we will completely transition to the new numbers.
