Frankie's Son

After 10 years and a complete restoration/upgrade, Frank Lloyd Wright Jr.'s Mayan temple on Franklin is back on the market.  Have you driven past it hundreds of times like I have, wondering WTF is behind those gates? Today I got my answer... It was a treat to see it today on Caravan; truly a wonderful piece of architecture... a lush homage to Mayan culture and just minutes from Jumbo's Clown Room!

7 Bedrooms. 4 Bathrooms. 5,600 SF. 14,630 Lot. Built in 1927. $4,200,000.

If you have $4.4 Million and want to buy an actual Neutra, this Palisades property has been on the block for 88 days.  It's yours if you want it!  I'd love to sell it.  If you want to move west and live in an architectural masterpiece with a spectacular "Queens Necklace" view, let me know!

464 pages. 1 Architect. Beautiful book.

Taschen has assembled an incredible retrospective of Richard Neutra's work.  It's HUGE!  I almost missed my movie last night at the Arclight.  I did go there to see a movie after all... not to read a book!

If you have a coffee table in need of some style, pick it up (if you can).
