Old Towne Orange PLAZAREVIEW
From the Publisher I especially enjoy how Old Towne Orange effortlessly combines the past with the present and future. Stand on any corner in the Plaza, and you’ll see establishments harkening back to the past next door to contemporary businesses. It’s this unique blend of old and new that I have so enjoyed about being the publisher of the Old Towne Orange Plaza Review these past 20 years. At the Plaza Review, while we honor the past, we also share exciting new offerings and upcoming events via our much-loved “old school” print edition, as well as online. The print issue you’re holding in your hands will likely get tucked away once read, but the online version with our vast archive of stories is always available on our website at www.OrangeReview.com. This includes 2012 issues of a decade ago—the covers of which you will see in this issue. As I look back at the Plaza Review over the last two decades, I see many familiar faces. This includes all our wonderful advertisers, without whom the Plaza Review would not be in existence. Some of those advertisers have been with us from the beginning, while others have come along in more recent years. These advertisers include Jadtec Security, Villa Ford, Chapman University, the Hilbert Museum, Blaze Pizza, Rutabegorz, Summerhill Ltd., Paris in a Cup, Guardian Roofs, Shafer Plumbing, O SEA, the Orange Chamber of Commerce and Skin Care by Cristina. There’s something about a new year and the new beginnings and fresh perspectives brought forth that create a rush of excitement. I look forward to seeing what unfolds in 2022 and sharing the news with you, our muchappreciated reader!
