I went to see Stimson House a few weeks ago, here are a few photos, taken through the fence. It's quite an amazing place.







BTW, sorry for being so quiet here lately. All my spare time has been devoted to preparations for a talk and slideshow I'm giving on L.A. history...with much material liberally stolen from this thread.
