Eighteen years in the making, centerpiece of Grand By John Welborne Finally under construction across from the Walt Disney Concert Hall is a new retail, dining and entertainment destination, to be accompanied by attractive and usable open space, a 309-room hotel and 400 luxury apartments, 20 percent of which will be rented at affordable rates. Dig-

nitaries and just plain “Downtowners” celebrated the milestone groundbreaking under a tent canopy and in front of two performance stages on a closed Grand Ave. on Feb. 11. Since 2001 The milestone moment is the result of a public-private undertaking that commenced in earnest in 2001 with the cre-

ation of the private Grand Avenue Committee. Some observers say the idea of vitalizing the vacant parking lots of Grand Avenue goes back to the walkabout taken up and down the street by Mayor Richard Riordan, Cardinal Roger Mahony and others in 1996. The walkers’ concern was how to realize any of the many visions for

just one issue – reimagining Grand Avenue. With the authority formed, experienced developer teams were solicited to propose development of multiple vacant parcels owned either by the city or county, plus the revitalization of the 12-acre County Mall now renamed “Grand Park.” (Full disclosure: this writer’s wife, Martha L. Welborne, FAIA, was hired in 2001 to create and manage the Grand Avenue Committee, which she did for more than a decade.) Related Companies chosen The developer team selected in August 2004 — Related Companies, headquartered in New York — persisted for 15 years before finally breaking

ground on the centerpiece parcel of the Grand Avenue Project last month. During those 15 years, Related paid for the mall’s remake into Grand Park. Related constructed the 19-story Emerson apartment project on the west side of Grand Avenue. Related also saw its adjacent development parcel pass out of its hands and into the hands of Eli Broad, who erected his museum, The Broad, on that site. Related also weathered the late-2000s “Great Recession.” And, still, Related held on. During this long period, Related also engaged as its designer one of the architects who had been on a competing team back in 2004, none other

Grand Avenue was demolished — 50 years after it was erected “temporarily” in the 1960s. Then, serious excavation of the large block got underway — for 1,000-plus parking spaces and the foun(Please turn to page 11)

Visibility of Women’s history increasing during the past decade “History is a cloak of understanding and visibility that we can all find comfort in wearing,” says historian Meagan Baco. The visibility of women’s history and associated geographic sites has been steadily increasing over the past decade. In 2020, the U.S. will celebrate the 100th anniversary of women’s right to vote at the national level; California women received this right statewide in 1912. Women’s History Month has been celebrated in March every year since 1987. SurveyLA included a special context to identify sites associated with women, women’s institutions, activities, workplaces, and those designed by women.

McAvoy on Preservation by

Christy McAvoy The National Trust for Historic Preservation (NTHP) is partnering with the National Collaborative for Women’s History Sites to honor “places that have re-envisioned, reinvigorated and redesigned how we tell the stories of women’s history in the U.S.” The latest NTHP “Forum Journal” is devoted to this topic, with articles by architectural historian Karen Grieves, enhanc-

ing what we know of Julia Morgan’s work, and by Donna Graves, offering insight on the role of the San Francisco Women’s Building in shaping the women’s and LGBT movements of the 1970s. And yet, there is much more to do. Why do historic sites provide an effective forum for telling women’s stories? Examining buildings, landscapes and physical culture expands the opportunity to understand the lives of the people who created and inhabited them. “Remarkable Women” In 2015, Marilyn Brant Chandler DeYoung (who grew up in a Roland E. Coate home that her parents built on June Street in Hancock Park) wrote

REMARKABLE WOMEN of California are described in Marilyn Brant Chandler DeYoung’s 2015 book.

a book she titled “Remarkable Women of California.” It was her personal yet erudite take on some of the women who had shaped the history of this remarkable state. She grouped their achievements into landowners, Hollywood actresses, journalists and writers, philanthropists and benefactors, organizers, athletes, artists and so on. The brief biographies in each section reflect the diverse accomplishments of California women, many in our region. Identifying the sites associated with the women in this volume and others will enhance the story. Identify more women You can help. Many of the state’s preservation organizations are making it a goal to expand the list of sites associated with women in California by 2020. One thought is to create a map of sites, using data contributed by the public as well as professionals. Democratization of preservation to include sites associated with all races, classes, and genders can provide a platform to tell a very inclusive story of life in Southern California. The women of this region deserve to be celebrated.

Do you know where a woman whose achievements have been largely forgotten lived or worked? One who played a role in creating an institution that impacted the lives of others? Examples: The Wilfandel Club just received a grant from the National Trust to rehabilitate its facility. The Florence Yoch-designed garden at The Ebell is undergoing a facelift. Poet Carrie Jacobs Bond’s lovely Craftsman home retains its peaceful setting in the foothills of Hollywood. These are real places that shed light on women’s experiences and achievements. Tour women’s sites The Los Angeles Conservancy (LAC) and The Ebell team up on March 10 with a tour of the Ebell clubhouse, a screening of the documentary about NYC activist Jane Jacobs called “Citizen Jane: Battle for the City” and a panel discussion. On March 23 and 24, LAC visits Julia Morgan’s Studio Club, the Downtown Women’s Center, and the San Pedro YWCA. On March 14 and 28, LAC offers a tour of A Woman’s Place: Union Station & Chinatown. At this writing, some of these events are sold out. Submit candidate sites Please send your candidates for inclusion on a local map or list of sites to me at christy@ christymcavoy.com. Residences, places of work and institutions all qualify. Include a sentence about the place and the woman’s importance. Let’s celebrate the depth, width, and breadth of women’s contributions to Los Angeles for years to come.

The Huntington you may not know: Archer Huntington Archer M. Huntington (1870-1955) had a young man’s dream — which he fulfilled after the death, in 1900, of his unimaginably wealthy father, Collis P. Huntington — to establish a microcosm of Spain in the United States. The Hispanic Society Museum & Library, in upper Manhattan, opened to the public in 1908, with the purpose of advancing study and appreciation of the arts, literature, and cultures of the Hispanic world. This “poem of a museum,” as it has been called, is closed for renovations; in the meantime, a remarkable sampling of its holdings is traveling, first to Madrid’s Prado, and now to the Albuquerque Museum of Art, where I have been lucky to see it. “Visions of the Hispanic World: Treasures from the Hispanic Society Museum & Library” will be shown later this year in Cincinnati, and it will begin its final stop, before returning to New York, at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston in March 2020. Archer Huntington’s lifelong scholarly passion for the archeology, history, and art of Spain and her former colonies began at age 19 when he visited Mexico in 1889 with his

Home Ground by

Paula Panich parents, Arabella and Collis P. Huntington. From the 1890s to the 1920s, Archer formed one of the world’s greatest collections of Spanish art. He did this intelligently, with erudition and care. Unlike other Gilded Age collectors, Archer Huntington, while not nearly as well known, exhibited a steady, thoughtful, and well-educated approach to collecting, remaining independent of the persuasive art dealers of his time. He was a modest man in both his collecting and philanthropy. His good works do not bear his name. But who was Archer Huntington? The Huntington family’s largesse is responsible for one of Los Angeles County’s, and California’s, most important cultural institutions, The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens, opened in 1919 in San Marino by Henry E. Huntington.

Collis Huntington Henry Huntington’s uncle was Collis, one of the Big Four railroad barons of the mid19th century, financiers of the Central Pacific and the Southern Pacific Railroads. Henry was a business associate of his uncle Collis, and Henry became a captain of industry too. Collis and his family had moved from Sacramento to New York in the 1860s; it was back East where Collis met Arabella Duval Yarrington when she was 19, almost 30 years younger than the railroad man. After Collis’s wife died, Arabella became his second wife in 1884. Archer Milton Worsham (later Huntington) was born to Arabella on March 10, 1870. “No conclusive evidence survives to verify the paternity of [the] child, and the truth may never be known without DNA testing,” writes Shelley Bennett, in “The Art of Wealth: The Huntingtons in the Gilded Age.” (This is an essential book to read to understand the complexities of the art world of its time.) After Collis and Arabella were married, Collis adopted 14-year-old Archer, who became Archer Milton Huntington. Archer resem-

One of the most arresting and intimate works in this exhibit is “Portrait of a Little Girl,” by Diego Velazquez, painted in 1638-1644.

Frieze Week Los Angeles art fair celebrated locally and citywide By John Welborne Last month saw the inaugural Frieze Los Angeles contemporary art fair headquartered right here in our part of town — at Paramount Pictures Studios. The first Frieze Art Fair took place in London in 2003, with Frieze New York taking place each May since 2012. Jonathan Griffin, a contributing editor of the “frieze” magazine that was founded in England in 1991 to report on contemporary art and culture, writes of these art fairs: “Every Frieze fair aspires to create the best possible temporary environment for viewing art with curated projects, talks and music programs all contributing to the fair’s appeal to a wide audience.” Griffin quotes magazine co-founder Amanda Sharp: “It’s more than simply a trade fair; it’s a place where art gets made as well as sold.” The temporary environment for the Los Angeles event at Paramount ran from Valentine’s Day through the Sunday of Presidents’ Day Weekend, and among the things for which the 2019 event will be remembered is rain!

Politi’s ‘Works of Love and Protest’ now at IAMLA

By Rachel Olivier “Works of Love and Protest,” an exhibit featuring art by the late Leo Politi, Caldecott-winning artist and author who was known as the “Artist of the City of Angels,” is at the Italian American Museum of Los Angeles (IAMLA), 644 N. Main St., through May 19, Tuesdays through Sundays from 10 a.m.

“SONG OF THE SWALLOWS” was a Caldecott Medal winner in 1950.

to 3 p.m. Politi and his easel became a sight on Olvera Street soon after he arrived in Los Angeles from Italy in 1931. His first illustrated children’s book, “Little Pancho,” was released in 1938. “Pedro, the Angel of Olvera Street” (1946) was a Caldecott Medal runner-up. “Song of the Swallows” (1950) was a Caldecott winner. His art is known for demonstrating the diverse cultures and history of Los Angeles and for capturing landmarks and communities. Concerned about the loss of Bunker Hill, where he and his wife and children once lived, Politi wrote “Bunker Hill Los Angeles: Reminiscences of Bygone Days” in 1965. It was his form of protest of the imminent demolition of the homes and community on Bunker Hill. “Leo told me, when we

brought him back to Bunker Hill for the grand reopening of Angels Flight in 1996, that he was so happy to see at least one remnant of what had been there before,” said John Welborne, now publisher of the Larchmont Chronicle. “Leo spent “BUNKER HILL” was Politi’s form of protest for the demolition of a neighborhood. the weekend at the Flight, signing pressed and lonely in recent leopoliti2008centennial.org. special posters he allowed years, but that his involveAdmission to the museum us to print for the occasion ment in the Angels Flight is free, although donations are and chatting with the visi- events made him feel vital encouraged. tors,” said Welborne. “Leo and happy again.” Politi died For more information, visit told me he had been very de- a month later at age 86.

Groundbreaking ceremonies The Feb. 11 dignitaries who were savoring all this progress (and speaking about it) were welcomed to the morning ceremonies by festive fanfares from the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s Brass Ensemble. Included in the program were Mayor Eric Garcetti, Supervisor Hilda Solis, architect Gehry, former Grand Avenue Committee chairs Eli Broad and Nelson Rising, and the developer’s executives including Related Companies chairman Stephen Ross and president and CEO of Related Urban, Kenneth Himmel. Later in the morning’s program, there was a panel discussion among Messrs. Broad, Gehry, Ross and Rising, moderated by KCRW’s Frances Anderton. Wrapping things up — before and after photos with groundbreaking shovels — were more performances from the Music Center as well as the Colburn School. The morning’s culmination was a block party with food from many hip local restaurants including Howlin’ Rays, Ma’am Sir, and more.

Pleasure is strictly forbidden in this mythical country ProfessorKnowIt-All Bill Bentley

Stratton. Spam is a tinned meat product originally created by an American company in the 1930s as a lunch meat. It came into great prominence during World War II as a staple for the Armed Forces. It consists chiefly of ham, and after repeated eating by G.I.s was anything but popular. Spam was both ubiquitous and unwanted, and so was a natural moniker for the junk email we receive over the internet. • • • Why are aristocrats said to be “born to the purple”? queries Jon Davison. The color purple was a synonym for the rank of Roman emperor, derived from the color of the emperor’s dyed woolen robe. This deep and rare hue was very expensive to obtain, as it had to be harvested from the purpura, a somewhat rare shellfish, and

was always a mark of great dignity among the ancient Greeks and Romans. Today, it is used mostly in the Catholic Church to denote bishops and archbishops. • • • How come a stupid person is also a “dunce”? wonders

Tanya Kern. The word is taken from the famous medieval educator John Duns Scotus, who proposed to separate theology from philosopy and science. His followers were called Duncers and when later theologians broke away

How come workaholics always have their “noses to the grindstone”? queries Wayne Gandy. The novel “Pollyanna” was one of the megahits of the Edwardian era, but not every one was enamored of the relentlessly optimistic heroine. Mytryl Mason, a disgusted librarian, wrote a very popular parody, called “Mollyanna,” in which the heroine lives in the mythical country of Travail, where all pleasure was strictly forbidden. Travailians were regulated by a draconian and elaborate system of penalties to ensure that they remained pleasure-free. A citizen caught looking at a rainbow, for example, would be forced to wear a blindfold; listening to music would require your earlobes to be cut; and stopping to smell the flowers would mandate — you guessed it — having your nose put to a grindstone. I wonder if this also would make the effects of the punishment as “plain as the nose on your face”? • • • Why are unwanted advertisements on the internet known as “spam”? asks Jane
