Honoring Julia Morgan, Architect Extraordinaire: Yes, a woman did that

“When do we think the five LA County permitting and review agencies will finally approve our plans?” After 20 months, our beloved architect, Cole Butler — a woman standing on the mighty yet tiny shoulders of über architect Julia Morgan — could still only guess. “A week? Two weeks? If we’re lucky.” Cole is burdened by a complex, drawn-out building bureaucracy that Julia Morgan never had to navigate. From 1904 to her death in 1957, Miss Morgan designed more than 700 buildings, the most famous of which is Hearst Castle on California’s Highway 1 along the central coast.

Commentary: California’s super-rich conquered the world, but not always the voters

On a clear evening in Los Angeles, a fundraiser can fill a garden with people whose companies are household names on three continents, while a few miles away a city council race turns on potholes, rents, and a school bond. That contrast is the quiet drama of the California super-rich. Their products shape how the world works, shops, and talks. Their checks can flood a campaign. Their names open doors in capitals far from Sacramento. Yet California voters have repeatedly shown that fortune is not a proxy, and that economic reach does not guarantee a winning argument at the polling place.

Los Angeles Voted. Jewish Students Are Still Waiting to Know Who Will Stand With Them

A STUDENT'S VIEW - The election is over. But for a generation confronting antisemitism, political promises mean nothing without protection, accountability, and courage. Imagine being a young Jewish student in Los Angeles and wondering whether wearing a Star of David will invite harassment. Imagine walking toward a university classroom and questioning whether your identity, your beliefs, or your connection to Israel will make you unwelcome. Now imagine watching another election come and go, hearing politicians celebrate diversity and inclusion and still wondering whether those promises include you. This is the question Los Angeles cannot afford to ignore.
