We congratulate Mayor Richard Riordan for speaking out in support of the Southwest Museum maintaining its present historic site at the 1914 National Registry-available building (“Mayor: City Committed to Museum,” Nov. 24). The coalition of groups that make up Save Our Southwest Museum has been and will continue to work with the museum to find positive solutions to museum concerns.
This landmark site--and only this site--can speak to the history and culture of the City of Los Angeles. The Southwest Museum, the building and the collection, are physical and cultural landmarks worthy of the best preservation efforts. We urge the museum’s board of directors to see this issue in the larger context it deserves.
