Look at picture:

LA is used to look much like San Francisco-ish so it got sad because Victorian homes got demolished. :bash:

It's gone now so must save the Victorian home but its too late now.

If Los Angeles don't changes since long ago then house will be pretty similiar to Houston and rest of South. The house with brick and much differnet.

If not changes yet then LA will be: (Just example)
http://homepics.realtor.com/image1/http/houston/listings/large/028/4180638.jpg
http://homepics.realtor.com/image1/http/houston/listings/large/016/1016985.jpg
http://homepics.realtor.com/image1/http/houston/listings/large/079/985954.jpg
http://homepics.realtor.com/image1/http/houston/listings/large/050/2114590.jpg

As it's got failed then LA already got stucco, stone or even vineyl side (No longer to be South):

http://homepics.realtor.com/image2/http/crisnet/listings/large/044/r1979883a.jpg

Well, LA is good example as Miami, Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Diego or rest of Southwest execpt for some part of Texas/New Mexico.

they should have just moved those nice homes to somewhere else. I guess that wasnt very practical back then.
