[quote=briansd1]I personally don’t think those houses in La Jolla are worth preserving.
They are just wood bungalows and should be torn down.
The preservation movement is ridiculous in my opinion. We end up with old housing that no longer meet out standards of comfort. People should be allowed to tear down and remodel more easily.[/quote]
Ack, no!!!
While you might not appreciate the beauty and character of historic buildings, many other people do. You can build a crappy new building anywhere, any day; but the old historic buildings can never be replicated authentically.
I’m all for saving old buildings and making sure they are kept in the hands of people who appreciate them.
Hard to believe those cottages have been empty for 33 years. What were they thinking????
