Mulholland, with the support of another visionary, Fred Eaton, implemented a plan to redirect water from the Owens Valley on the eastern slopes of the Sierras. The result of their efforts, the California Aqueduct, is one of the great engineering wonders of the world. Employing 5000 workers and 6000 mules, the 238- mile long aqueduct was completed under budget in record time.<br /><br />Mulholland, the poor immigrant who lived for a time in a one-room wooden shack near the present-day fountain died in 1935. The fountain dedicated to him was completed in 1940. Approximately 3,000 people attended the dedication ceremony on August 1, 1940. A memorial plaque at the foot of the fountain reads, 'To William Mulholland (1855-1935): A Penniless Irish Immigrant Boy who Rose by the Force of his Industry, Intelligence, Integrity and Intrepidity to be a Sturdy American Citizen, a Self-Educated Engineering Genius, a Whole-Hearted Humanitarian, The Father of this City's Water System, and the Builder of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. This Memorial is Gratefully Dedicated to those who are the Recipients of His Unselfish Bounty and the Beneficiaries of His Prophetic Vision.'<br /><br />The Mulholland Fountain is located at the Intersection of Riverside Drive and Los Feliz Blvd. in Los Feliz. It was declared an Historic-Cultural Monument in the City of Los Angeles in 1976 (No. 162). <br /><br />Please do not use this image in any media without my permission.<br />© All rights reserved.</p>Silver Lake: Los Angeles' Urban Villagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17583710430245968105noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018760724009259589.post-83295672132945699762012-12-18T07:03:00.001-08:002012-12-18T07:03:28.845-08:00Hollyhock House, Frank Lloyd Wright, Architect 1921<div style="margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 0; font-size: 0.8em; line-height: 1.6em;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2935338779/" title="Hollyhock House, Frank Lloyd Wright, Architect 1921"><img src="http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3216/2935338779_6c4575692a.jpg" alt="Hollyhock House, Frank Lloyd Wright, Architect 1921 by Michael Locke" /></a><br/><span style="margin: 0;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2935338779/">Hollyhock House, Frank Lloyd Wright, Architect 1921</a>, a photo by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/">Michael Locke</a> on Flickr.</span></div><p>One of Los Angeles' great civic landmarks, Hollyhock House was built for oil heiress Aline Barnsdall, who inherited the estate of her grandfather, William Barnsdall (who had the good fortune of discovering the second oil-producing well in the United States). The heiress had a passion for the arts, serving as co-director of an experimental theater company in Chicago, where she met architect Frank Lloyd Wright. While on a trip to California in 1915, the idea of developing a theatrical community in Los Angeles sparked her imagination with the innovative Wright to be her choice as architect. <br /><br />The house takes its name from the hollyhock, a favorite flower of Barnsdall, which is stylized in the decorative elements of the home including the roofline, walls, columns, and furniture. The master plan called for an arts complex to be built on the thirty-six acre site known as Olive Hill consisting of a home for Barnsdall and her daughter, two guest houses, theater, dormitory and studios for actors and artists, shops, a home for the center's director and a movie theater. Only three of the structures were actually realized, the residence and guest houses. Although Wright is credited with the design, the actual construction was supervised by his apprentice, Rudolf Schindler, and Wright's son, Frank Lloyd Wright, Jr., who would establish prominent careers of their own. (Frank Lloyd Wright was preoccupied with work on the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo during most of the construction).<br /><br />In 1927, Barnsdall, without ever having lived at Hollyhock, deeded the house and eleven surrounding acres to the City of Los Angeles. It was leased to various organizations including the California Art Club and Dorothy Clune Murray's Olive Hill Foundation in the ensuing decades, enduring alterations to suit the various needs of the tenants. In 1974, the facility underwent an extensive restoration, bringing back much of the original appearance.<br /><br />Although Barnsdall's dream of a center for the arts was not realized during her lifetime, she would be proud to see the home in its present state. Today, the Barsdall Arts Park offers a modern civic art gallery, theater, and art studios, and a stunning example of the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright. Photo taken during a tour of Los Angeles Modernism for the French Institute of Architectts (Champagne Region) arranged by myself and Architect Gustavo Gubel, October 11, 2008.<br /><br />In 1963, the Hollyhock House was designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Landmark by the Cultural Affairs Commission (No. 12). The Barnsdall Art Park is located at 4804 Hollywood Boulevard. Hourly tours are available Wednesday through Sunday beginning at 12:30 p.m. and ending at 3:30 p.m. <br />Website:www.hollyhockhouse.net</p>Silver Lake: Los Angeles' Urban Villagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17583710430245968105noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018760724009259589.post-74120689921503733602012-11-03T06:47:00.001-07:002012-11-03T06:47:16.363-07:00Cotten-Elliot House, Roy D.

They settled in Bakersfield, where the family made a living selling blue jeans to the farm hands working the fields of California's Central Valley. He enrolled in the University of Southern California School of Architecture, following in the path of Gilbert Leong. He was politically active on campus, serving in the Architecture School Student Senate and Alpha Lambda, a Chinese American student group.<br /><br />After graduation in 1939, he put his career ambitions on hold due to World War II; he went to work for Hughes Aircraft until the war was over. Resuming his architectural career, he became the first Chinese American in California to join the AIA; second only to New York-based I.M. Pei. He launched his own architectural practice with a small staff; designing a wide range of projects. He collaborated with his younger brother, Allan Kinn Choy, also a practicing architect, on several projects, including the FBI Office Building in Las Vegas,<br /><br />Choy built his personal residence in the Silver Lake community of Los Angeles at 3027 Castle Street in the Primrose Hill section. Constructed on a 50'-wide lot, the house sits back from the street, creating privacy. Inside, the house features floor-to-ceiling windows, creating a connection between the living area and the garden terrace.</p>Silver Lake: Los Angeles' Urban Villagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17583710430245968105noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018760724009259589.post-84960443595283273612011-11-05T23:28:00.001-07:002011-11-05T23:28:23.392-07:00The Architecture of Los Feliz<div style="padding: 0; overflow: hidden; margin: 0; width: 500px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228135902/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="Schrage House, Raphael Soriano, Architect, 1951" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2228/2228135902_c2e9646225_s.jpg" alt="Schrage House, Raphael Soriano, Architect, 1951" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228134476/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="Cedars Estate, Xorin Balbes, Sue Wong & Zoltan Papp, Restoration 2003-2004" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2418/2228134476_87f2bd976e_s.jpg" alt="Cedars Estate, Xorin Balbes, Sue Wong & Zoltan Papp, Restoration 2003-2004" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2227340557/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="Griffith Park Observatory, 2007" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2343/2227340557_27b3116ec2_s.jpg" alt="Griffith Park Observatory, 2007" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228131190/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="The House of the Seven Dwarves, Ben Sherwood, Contractor, 1931" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2020/2228131190_79999c5e99_s.jpg" alt="The House of the Seven Dwarves, Ben Sherwood, Contractor, 1931" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228130252/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="Farrell House, Lloyd Wright, Architect 1926" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2103/2228130252_c566c69a83_s.jpg" alt="Farrell House, Lloyd Wright, Architect 1926" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228129790/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="13th Church of Christ, Scientist, Allison & Allison, Architects 1926" style="display: block; padding: 0 0 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2093/2228129790_6f7114dd5b_s.jpg" alt="13th Church of Christ, Scientist, Allison & Allison, Architects 1926" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><br clear="all"/><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2228129404/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="KCET Studios" style="display: block; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px; height: 75px; float: left;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2363/2228129404_666e464638_s.jpg" alt="KCET Studios" style="border:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px; height: 75px;"/></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/2227338101/in/set-72157603816411295/" title="Shakespeare Bridge, J.C.

Our destination was the LOS FELIZ ESTATES, developed by Harlan Lee and Associates in the mid 1960s . The homes in the area reflect the architecture of the times, for the most part single story, south-facing homes designed to take particular advantage of the panoramic views of the city. In the mix I found a few spectacular homes like this one. Note the many tall windows and dramatic roof line.</p>Silver Lake: Los Angeles' Urban Villagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17583710430245968105noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018760724009259589.post-84725778920094539642011-11-05T08:11:00.001-07:002011-11-05T08:11:52.206-07:00Hong Residence, Roger Hong, Architect 1968<div style="margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 0; font-size: 0.8em; line-height: 1.6em;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/6304860188/" title="Hong Residence, Roger Hong, Architect 1968"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6110/6304860188_a5212e7507.jpg" alt="Hong Residence, Roger Hong, Architect 1968 by Michael Locke" /></a><br/><span style="margin: 0;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/6304860188/">Hong Residence, Roger Hong, Architect 1968</a>, a photo by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michael_locke/">Michael Locke</a> on Flickr.</span></div><p>Buff & Hensman associate Architect Roger designed the classic post-and-beam house for his mother in 1968.
