Lots of great history there but what could you do w/ it to carry the price/upkeep/taxes?
Museum/Small Shop/Rental facilities for Functions/Auctions would be cool but hard to consider/commit w/ world of late?

Goerge Barris' daughter is going to open some kind of a museum with her fathers memorabilia at a different location.

Rumors are it will be torn down and made into a strip mall.

A developer would need to acquire more than just that 1/3 acre for a mall... Have to be a U shape and very small at that.
The city should register it as a historic site and limit the uses to automotive.
I agree, Pete, the cost of doing business at a profit would seem high, but isn't everything in tinsel town expensive ?
