While the home with the addition atop the Victorian loft is GEORGEOUS!! I have to wonder how a family with only 4 kids outgrows a 4-bedroom home and "needs" to build that big a space.

That glass box on top of the masonry building is just ridiculously overscaled and out of context. Shame on the irresponsible bureacrat that allowed this to happen. And for people who are so hellbent on living like they are in the suburbs, why don't they just move to the suburbs already? Just another classic case of the rich perched in their hilltop mansions looking down at the commoners in the valley below...

I live in the Palms district of LA. There are few modern homes like the one in this acticle. It's beautiful. I hope to be able to find the location someday.

“This is London. This is real.”, yep, $3.5 million and a Pritzker winning Dad worth of 'real'.
Would love to see AT profile some families with less dollars making do with small city spaces.
