Los Altos, Los Altos Hills to work on Redwood Grove path after council gives go-ahead losaltosonline.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from losaltosonline.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
The long-vacated – and debated – Halsey House will undergo a more than $40,000 consultants’ review following action last week by the Los Altos City Council.
Deep blushes of embarrassment, especially over soulless high-rise blocks during the “Brutalist” period of the 1950s and 60s, should now move on to sprawling lookalike estates and a myriad of other ugly urban excesses spreading insidiously across Skipper’s native patch.
I am fortunate to find examples of his elegance and style on my Cromer doorstep. St Mary’s House, which until recently saw service as local health authority offices, stands proudly at the busy end of the road where we installed our family seat 33 years ago.
Just over the way in Vicarage Road, I can stand and admire St Benet’s, a Grade II listed building, and others bearing his attractive stamp. A gentle stroll in and around town reveals plenty more evidence of Skipper’s talents, including Halsey House, now a British Legion care home, Cromer Town Hall and the Hotel de Paris, lording it over pier and promenade since the 1890s.
Stop bullying council member
This an open letter to Kenan Moos, Justice Vanguard, the Town Crier and Los Altos Mayor Neysa Fligor.
Stop bullying and harassing Los Altos City Councilmember Lynette Lee Eng. She has explained how Mr. Moos’ text messages concerned her. She doesn’t need to justify her concern to anyone, nor does she need to apologize for her feelings.
To say that she felt that way simply because Mr. Moos is a Black man is ridiculous. This isn’t about race. It is about a young man who refuses to accept the fact that someone disagrees with his way of thinking.
