Fun ride, who would ever believe a ride would get hijacked by a home owner who took us in and gave us a great tour of her house. Her hospitality was, without any doubt, the unexpected high point of the ride.

For those of us who were lucky enough to get hijacked, is there any chance of catching the part of the ride that we missed?

for sure. i'll post up a route map and list of the houses asap!!!! thx again, this was really fun. next ride will be in september, and it'll be even better. seriously. :)

here's a play by play of the ride. i'll post the link to the route in a sec.

Stop 1: Bubeshko Apts. (Schindler) 1938

2036 Griffith Park Blvd.

A dramatic setback of each level allows the building to hug the hillside and continue internal spaces out to the patios.

Stop 2: Orans House (Ain) 1941

2404 Micheltorena St.

The living room is covered by a gently sloping shed roof that floats above bands of glass.

Stop 3: Tierman House (Ain) 1939

2323 Micheltorena St.

Two levels, pivots around a central core lighted by skylight

Stop 5: Alexander House (Harris) 1941

2265 Micheltorena St.

Stop 6: Olive House (Schindler) 1933

2236 Micheltorena St.

International style flat roof in the front, shed and gable roofs on the garden side. The ceilings inside are therefore crazy. The living room has one of Schindler’s most beautiful built-in furniture setups.

Stop 7: Silvertop (Lautner) 1957

2138 Micheltorena St.

Cantilevered driveway and swimming pool, exotic design.

Stop 8: Wilson House (Schindler) 1939

2090 Redcliff St.

The cantilevered three floors of receding and projecting boxes out to the rear, and then connected them with projecting balconies at the sides.

Stop 9: Walker House (Schindler) 1936

2100 Kenilworth Ave.

Stop 10: Droste House (Schindler) 1940

2025 Kenliworth Ave.

As this house was being finished, Schindler asked the owners to sit where their dining table would be on the second floor so he could adjust the lintel on the window so that the owners wouldn’t miss anything in the view.

Stop 10: Hansen House (Harris) 1951

2305 W. Silver Lake Blvd.

Harris was a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. This house is only interesting because it stands out on the street.

Stop 11: VDL Research House (Neutra) 1964

2300 E. Silver Lake Blvd.

The original pure international style research house built in 1933 was mostly burned in 1963. This house isn’t as experimental, but still represents Neutra’s late romantic period. The house steps away from the blvd. and with each step there is a rooftop pond.

Stop 12: Neutra Colonies

Three Houses: 1) Akai House (Neutra) 1961, 2) 2200 Neutra Pl, Ohara House (Neutra) 1961, 3) 2210 Neutra Pl. Flavin House (Neutra) 1958, 2218 Neutra Pl

Tree Top Condos (Dion Neutra, Neutra’s Son) 1980, 2434 Earl St.

Treweek House (Neutra) 1948, 2250 Silver Lake Blvd.
Sokol House (Neutra) 1948, 2242 Silver Lake Blvd.
Inadomi House (Neutra) 1960, 2238 Silver Lake Blvd.

Kambara House (Neutra) 1960, 2232 Silver Lake Blvd.

Yew House (Neutra) 1957, 226 E. Silver Lake Blvd.

ROUTE

Route starts at Sunset and Rampart and moves clockwise. We skipped the part on Descanso and Mailman (too steep).

Thanks for the list, I see we were hijacked at stop 9 out of 12 by that incredibly gracious home owner who took us in.

I've always been afraid to try a tour of Silverlake houses because of the hills but I'm glad we did and I found that the climb up to Micheltoena was entirely doable.

I believe it's the VDL house that has a small sitting room on the roof. I sat there once and watched the sun set over the lake. That was a really nice tour and thanks again for setting it up.

Danny, cabhauler, mixtemotions, Rollers, Dorothy, and others, just before Marcus left town, he was talking about doing a Frank Lloyd Wright #2 tour but ran out of time. IIt's up to us to do a sequel. Brian was there yesterday and maybe we can catch some of the others who rode on the original FLW tour. Kudos to Agent Orange for coming up with the idea originally and if he could join us, it would be icing on the cake.

Let's do it, maybe we can set up a google group and come up with a list of architects and their works and turn it into a coherent ride. This city has a lot of architectural significance but unfortunately for me but good for strange like Danny, a lot of it is up in hillls so there could be a lot of climbing.

I've noticed there are a lot of people on this list who have backgrounds in art, whether it's painting, graphic design, photograhy and architecture. Los Angeles has matured and is no longer the cultural wasteland as many in the past had thought and maybe it's time to take advantage of that.
