I found this extremely interesting as well. I had no idea the original plans consisted of so many outlying buildings;
There was even a small lake...wow. Fantastic job Engineeral!

So Hollyhock House and a fair bit of open space near it remains but many of the other proposed buildings and the observation platform were not built or have been lost. Considerable development has occurred on three of the four sides of the original site.

Does anyone remember what the name was before it became Barnsdall Park? I used to know but I can't think of it now.
