3rd LA | 96 Acres: Designs on the Silver Lake Reservoir

96 Acres: Designs on the Silver Lake Reservoir will consider one of the most contentious public-space issues in contemporary Los Angeles: the future of the Silver Lake Reservoir. Now that the reservoir will no longer be a source of public drinking water, what’s the best way to use its 96 acres? Panelists including Catherine Geanuracos, Silver Lake Forward; Anne-Marie Johnson, Silver Lake Neighborhood Council; Nathan Masters, USC Libraries; Alexander Robinson, Assistant Professor in the USC Landscape Architecture and Urbanism Program and Alissa Walker, Urbanism Editor, Curbed LA will provide a range of fresh perspectives.

Richard Neutra

Richard Neutra is 125!

April 8, 2017 marks the 125th anniversary of the birth of this remarkable pioneer of the modernist movement in the US.

Recognized on the cover of Time Magazine in 1949 and again with the AIA’s Gold Medal in 1977, we pause to celebrate this titan in the history of modern design in the US and on 4 continents.

The NEUTRA INSTITUTE MUSEUM OF SILVER LAKE will host a birthday party at its venue at the former Neutra office Building at 2379 Glendale Blvd. in Silverlake,  Saturday April 8, from 6 to 10PM.

Open to the public at no charge; join us to celebrate!

Take a look at the current art show and newly released Neutra Furniture on display in this ‘community room’; a new use for the office space of the Neutra Practice, which operated there until the 90s.
