Trousdale Estates is an interesting place. Looking forward to seeing original 50's and 60's photos and reading your commentary. I've wondered if you're related to Wallage Ridge???Rosco Marenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-1934765028564286462011-11-14T07:11:28.804-08:002011-11-14T07:11:28.804-08:00To Rosco Mare. *I* heard you (about the Froelich)...To Rosco Mare. *I* heard you (about the Froelich). I noticed, I railed, I raised hell. I thought at first it was just going to be reno'd...those first steps looked very much like preservation. Then one day -- GONE<br /><br />And now, a William Stephenson at the corner of Delfern and Sunset I saw yesterday is being replaced by G-d Only Knows What (next door to Betsy Bloomingdale).<br /><br />Listen, chicken, I've always admired your commentary here (you're one of my three favorites) so you might be interested to learn that I'm chronicling some of the MCM history of Beverly Hills in a new book: www.Trousdale-OverTheTop.com We're also on Facebook where we touch on other significant Modernist homes in BH and surrounding areas (esp those in trouble or those we've lost); you'll see several mentions of the Froelich as the Sword of Damocles was hanging over it. <br /><br />Hope you give it a look!

The Schwimmers aren't going find anything that can top this classic estate in the Hancock Park area imo, so I don't understand their decision to sell it and find another. As nice as it is though, I think it's introductory listing price is intended as a fishing expedition to see if there's anyone out there frivolous enough to pay that much for it.angienoreply@blogger.com
