Amazing news that Marilyn's house still stands. I hope it will keep standing.

I hope beyond hope that you can save this national treasure. The rich people in Brentwood will have to move elsewhere if they want quiet. People want to visit and they should ave the privilege. Tell the neighbors to move.

The PLUM Committee voted unanimously yes today, so it's looking good for landmarking!

If looky-loos are sending in drones, I am (slightly) sympathetic to the neighbor - but their whole purchase seems shady AF. They were hoping to knock it down and trust nobody noticed.

The neighbor is also the owner who sought demolition with no required public notice, and whose unpermitted removal of trees and a wall between the two properties were seen on the (legal) drone footage and exposed the name of the owner that had been obscured behind the Glory of the Snow name.

yes I know they're the secret buyer and they took down the wall - that's what I mean: shady AF. I just meant vaguely sympathetic if their kids are being bothered.

Agreed.

It would be horrifying to lose such a treasure! It’s hard to believe the billionaire blond next door is so extremely shortsighted and selfish but that seems to have become the norm these days.
