In the images of Frank Giglio's home, I saw a house that had been built with some of the tenets of the Arts and Crafts movement. [1] Sadly, we have no appreciation for fine construction and buildings built to last. I google mapped Frank's house and realize now that Google has provided another way to capture the essence of an area: http://www.panoramio.com/ [2]
I plan to add images from my own neighborhood. It may not stop the wholesale destruction, but perhaps it will affect our collective conscience and encourage a better way to reinvent society.
