Avenue 50 Studio: Endangered

Avenue 50 Studio has been a leader in community outreach, and cross cultural understanding.  Avenue 50 Studio leases space at 131 North Avenue 50.  The 1925 masonry building was recently acquired by a new owner, and plans have been filed to demolish the structure.

Although the building is a recognized icon in the neighborhood, it does not have the protection of being listed as a "Contributing Structure" by the Cultural Heritage Commission.

The next hearing before the Highland Park Historic Perservation Overlay Zone Boad takes place Tuesday, January 9, 2007, 6:30 PM at Ramona Hall Recreation Center, 4580 Figueroa Street, Los Angeles 90065 (Beside Sycamore Grove Park).

Here is the Public Notice of Hearing.

Hopefully, people will realize that we need to perserve what we have and give it merit.
