If the walls could talk I'm sure there would be some great tales. However this home rather lacking in charm. The images shared are devoid of capturing the facade of either side except for a hint of the rear. <br><br>Aside from the vaulted timber effect of the interior I would've been hard pressed to say this was a 1920's era home. Rather it looks like a poor 1960s/70s major rework that robbed the home of any warmth or detailing. Without the classic styling cues of say an Italian coastal villa it just seems to be neither fish nor fowl. Perhaps all the more reason it should be razed.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spectacular Bid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2008 1:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Palisades Teardown, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow, if this is a teardown, I guess that means I live in a destitute hovel. A lot of people would pay good money for the distressed look and all the woodwork.  I agree it needs basic remodeling and certainly plenty of decorating. But a complete teardown? Seems like a shame to me. Maybe the pics don't convey how it looks in real life. . .]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kevin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2008 2:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Palisades Teardown, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[Where this is located, the house needs to be brought up to code for structural retrofitting to meet earthquake standards.

Thing is, when I lived in L.A. (loved it btw), one of the things I was consistently amazed by was the propensity to bulldoze the city's heritage, culture, and legacy.  However, Andy's point re- the code issue is very well taken.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2008 2:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Palisades Teardown, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[Let's see.  The code standards are to insure that the building can stand up to earthquakes?  My guess is that this house has lived through more earthquakes than the politico/lawyer that wrote the code.  84 years???? That's what happens when lawyers take over and common sense becomes passe'.  A little cleaning and paint and this place would shine!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2008 3:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Palisades Teardown, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[A very interesting and beautiful home.Hope it's restored.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Valerie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 26th 2008 12:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Palisades Teardown, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/02/25/palisades-teardown-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[It doesn't even appear neglected, it looks in better shape than most houses.<br><br>Of course the architect with "local experience" recommends it should be razed and replaced with one of his big box designs since he won't get a check if it’s kept...      ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TBOU]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 2nd 2008 10:30PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
