THE NEUTRA OFFICE BUILDING FOR
SALE Dion
Neutra's current Challenge! Another video will be shot when and if Dion literally smashes and demolishes the historic kitchen he has fought for over two years to preserve at Treetops. The city, while honoring the firm for it's achievement of 80 years in practice, is on record that this gorgeous kitchen shall be reduced to a simple counter with only a miniscule 'bar sink' and NO HOT WATER! It's right on the permit set; demolish this beauty, and cut off the hot water! Health Department take note! This despite the Institute’s inspection report that the complex now is governed by only two leases in accordance with zoning limitations. In another act of idiocy, the City would also mandate the closure of a second means of exit from this two story rental house. The fire department, if consulted, would condemn this as sheer recklessness; putting the occupants of the upper story at risk in a fire or panic. But there it is, on the permit set. As of this writing, this vandalism
is still possible by City mandate. Here again editing and post production
support services will be needed, as well as venues that would exhibit
this story of "The Folly of Los Angeles". The only good news
is that the last two inspectors who have checked in on this, seem in
no rush to enforce this, and have by their inspection even extended
the life of the permit until about mid September. We’ll see what
they propose next. NEW** Complete

Cyclorama in Gettysburg Facing Demolition GETTYSBURG NEWS FLASH! We think it important to address President Bush directly. (Can anyone tell us how to achieve a direct contact with first lady Laura Bush?) We've created a new petition to accomplish this. Even if you've signed petition-1 already, please consider signing in this new format as soon as possible. Read REMARKS made by signers of petition-1 for ideas of what you might say this time around! (Unfortunately, it is not possible to transfer you from the earlier petition, altho we will certainly try to submit the first petition along with this new one). If you wish to view the earlier petition and its 760+ signers once again, for the moment it is still viewable by clicking PETITION-1. You may even copy your earlier remarks; print them out and retype them for this new petition! (don't be intimidated by what seems like only one line for remarks; it expands!) View and sign the new PETITION-2. Thanks for your support! For more background, read: GETTYSBURG ALERT! Visit the Neutra Cyclorama Gallery to see views of the building at the Gettysburg Military National Park. View some of the Monuments of Gettysburg captured during our last trip to Gettysburg, Aug. 2004. Treetops
