Upcoming on April 10, 2011 is a rare chance to tour 10 buildings designed by architect
Richard Neutra and his son Dion Netura in Los Angeles, including homes in Silver Lake along Neutra Place. Los Feliz's Lovell Health House (a memorable location in "LA Confidential") will also be open to the public as well as the Neutra Architecture office on Glendale Blvd. The tour is one element of
a busy weekend commemorating the 85th anniversary of the practice organized by the non-profit Neutra Institute for Survival Through Design. Activities on Friday night and Saturday will be at the
Eagle Rock Recreation Center Clubhouse, also designed by the firm.

Saturday night there will be a reception at the
VDL Research House II, which is now owned by the Cal Poly Pomona College of Environmental Design. The last time there was a public tour of many of these homes was in 2001. Don't miss out on this chance to look inside these iconic modernist structures that helped establish Silver Lake's reputation as an architectural enclave.
