Hollyhock House in East Hollywood, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is at risk of losing its status due to proposed budget cuts by Los Angeles's City Council. The Department of Cultural Affairs, which manages the house, may see significant staffing reductions, which would hinder public access and preservation efforts. With only two full-time employees currently, any further cuts could leave the house unable to comply with UNESCO staffing requirements, threatening its future as a cultural landmark and public museum since 1976.
"Hollyhock House was the first Los Angeles commission for the legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Hollyhock House is an extraordinary and early expression of Southern California Architecture."
"It's one of just 26 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the United States and the only man-made one on the West Coast, facing potential budget cuts that could impact its status and public access."
