Oboler Update

Oboler Update

The Frank Lloyd Wright Revival Initiative is very pleased to announce that the efforts to have the Oboler compound declared an historic structure by California authorities, thereby allowing the salvageable portions of the stone masonry to be granted a waiver from demolition, has been successful. As a result, the owners can now proceed with FEMA to begin the permitting process for rebuilding.

The Revival Initiative has taken a very central and proactive role in this process, serving as spokesmen for the owners, recruiting several notable Frank Lloyd Wright scholars and fellows in writing letters of support which led to this favorable outcome, as well as committing 45,000. 00 as a start up fund for the rebuilding effort. We will continue working with the owners as the process moves forward.
