5 Things to Know: Chevron Lights, Mysterious Cave

Here are five things to start off your Thursday in Echo Park and Silver Lake:

1. After hearing complaints from neighbors about light pollution caused from the new Echo Park Chevron station Echo Park and Morton Avenues, Councilman Mitch O'Farrell's office said they were able to reach a compromise with the station's owners to help fix the issue. See what the compromise is here. 
2.
