Sad news for design-minded bookworms. After debuting at Space 15 Twenty seven years ago, legendary bookshop Hennessey + Ingalls has packed up at the Hollywood shopping center.

Per the tome chain's page, the insider-faved shop quietly closed at the end of March. We're told an eatery is expected to take over its space; staff at the Santa Monica store tells us that there are no plans to replace the Hollywood outpost. Bummer!
