Join us this week as we talk with Kate Eggert & Krisy Gosney of the Save the Santa Monica Boulevard Streamline Moderne campaign, for the riveting saga of their astounding grassroots preservation efforts to save these important structures from what looked to be certain demolition.
We’ll also discuss the return of swap meet vendors to Echo Park lake, a modernist Bakersfield architecture tour, the slow path to L.A.‘s anti-mcmansion ordinance and a possible community notification system for demolition permit requests affecting older buildings. All this and more as Kim & Richard usher in the week of September 29th, 2014.
