Windsor Square Riled over Dorothy Chandler Mansion Renovations

LARCHMONT BUZZ-A group of local residents calling themselves the Windsor Square Concerned Citizens League has created the website DorothyChandlerMansion.com to bring attention to the recent remodeling of “Los Tiempos” at 455 S. Lorraine Blvd. which they feel is inappropriate and inadequately overseen by City officials.  

The website is a ‘call to action’ to get people to sign an online petition and send emails to City officials asking them to force the new property owner to correct the recent exterior alterations made to the estate.   

The biggest transgression appears to be the painting of the stone-colored walls a bright white, which is incompatible with the Beaux-Arts style of the original home built in 1912. Other complaints include non-permitted work occurring, incorrect size, style and scaling of new fences, inappropriate lighting, and solar panels visible from the street.  (Read the rest here).
