THE BRADBURY BUILDING
Internationally famed for its architectural elegance and uniqueness, the Bradbury was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1977. It was designed in 1893 by architect George Wyman, who rumor prevails, only took the commission because his dead brother told him to - in a ghostly Ouija board message. The magnificence of the building is the five story interior atrium with extensive wrought iron lacework and skylight.
Green Pockets Project - Survey Day #1
Thank you to the many volunteers who came out to help us this weekend - we were able to survey the ENTIRE pilot area and we will be mapping it for your reference in the next few weeks! If you'd like to get involved, check out our upcoming events or email us at sustainability@dlanc.com.
Our volunteers included: Robyn Vallejos; Felipe Murillo; Claudia Murillo; Paul Chevalier; Neva Chevalier; Brandi Lozano; Corbett Miller; Marcela Jacome; Henry Proctor (DLANC Board 2008-2010); Shira Blatt; Grift Hardy; Ashley Hand; Gunnar Hand.
Join us as we kick-off our first survey of the neighborhood for the Green Pockets Project. Our goal is to map all of the leftover spots around Downtown Los Angeles that could potentially be transformed in small gardens with native (and maybe even edible) plants.
Meet us at the DLANC Office (453 S. Spring Street, Suite 1020) on Saturday, March 20 at 10AM where we will divide into survey teams and begin this exciting new project! Please let us know if you can make it - RSVP here or go to our website www.downtownsustainability.com
Here's our schedule for the day:
- 10:00AM: Meet and sign-in
- 10:15AM: Brief introduction to program and survey (with donuts)
- 10:30AM: Teams depart to survey a few areas of the neighborhood
- 11:30AM (or whenever you are finished): Return to the DLANC Office with your survey data
If it's rainy, we'll try and meet on Sunday at the same time - check out our website for updates!
