"The loss of the Hollywood Center Motel at 6614-6724 West #SunsetBlvd —and its 1905 centerpiece house—marks more than the disappearance of another historic building. It is a failure of policy, enforcement, and stewardship," #LAConservancy. www.instagram.com/p/DTJI5Ztk9s... #historicpreservation
This is sad. The iconic #StahlHouse, which was Case Study House 22, is for sale after 65 years. I hope whoever buys it is good to it.
