Chris says:
An incredible 4-unit motel designed by John Lautner in 1947 is on the market. It's in Desert Hot Springs.
The owner died in March and the price has been falling rapidly. it's been reduced from $745 to $495. There has been some discussion of a group purchase over on the ModCom message board.
I wonder if you know someone that would like this desert vacation property – or they could continue to run it as a motel. Lautner's work is amazing and interest will certainly soar with next year's major exhibition at the Hammer museum.
