The Rockefeller wealth has certaintly not declined substantially, they're just highly secretive and have it locked up in hundreds and hundreds of trusts. They also never spent in quite the manner that the Astor's or Vanderbilts did.

THAT was how it was DONE, gay children. RoscoMare and Lil Gay Boy, i expect nothing less from, and as usual they didnt disappoint.<br /><br />The fact that what replaced the magnificent Montalban/Legoretta is already being considered for demo within two years gives one pause. One thing that made the modernist mansion so liveable was the style sense no doubt inbued in Georgina Montalban by her mother, Gladys Belzer, one of the great decorating doyennes of 50s-thru-70s Los Angeles; Her other daughter, Loretta Young, was also known for her grace and style, but in a different venue.Carla Ridgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-17609658376618835272013-02-09T02:52:55.527-08:002013-02-09T02:52:55.527-08:00Jesse, Washington is actually quite regular – stud...Jesse, Washington is actually quite regular – study L'Enfant's plan.

Legoretta was no slouch.<br /><br />The current abode, however...well, not so much. It strikes me as a formulaic ass-hat design that will be dated in a decade.
