I hope MOMA doesn’t tear down the Folk Art Museum building, but I know they probably will. It’s such an interesting building and really well-designed inside and out. It’s a shame attendance at the museum never reached expectations. I know it’s part of the creative destruction of the city and all that, but I think the Folk Art Museum building is worth keeping.

John, that sounds like a noble idea but a bad idea. How is a museum a better idea than restaurant space, community space and nearby residential? Why is everyone so obsessed with turning everything into some sort of museum to the past, instead of real usable space? A museum isn’t gonna make money and isn’t gonna draw anyonu that not interested in boxers of yesteryear.

You can also add the Italian American Museum, home of the entirely entact early 1900s era Banca Stabile to this demolition list.

@guest #9: Calatrava’s Milwaukee Art Museum is part of the unfortunate trend of museum buildings that far outshine the art inside of them, a trend also exemplified by Daniel Libeskind’s Denver Art Museum and Gehry’s Guggenheim Bilbao. Yes, his buildings can draw crowds, but they don’t come for the art – they come to gawk at the building and leave.

That is the old coca-cola museum outside Underground Atlanta. It was better than the current one IMO. Now they try and say Coke tastes the same everywhere… it doesn’t. It tastes different in every country because the water (and sweetener) is different. At the old museum you could literally taste Coke from Italy or China or Australia, etc. The current museum is nothing but fluff, weird videos, and a poke in your back.

It would be a great site for the Los Angeles Methane Museum. They could build a pedestrian tunnel under Park La Brea from the subway stop at Fairfax and Wilshire, so museum-goers could take public transit and walk underground to 3rd and Ogden. Along the way, they can view murals on the walls of Ice-Age mammals, and the museum can have a display of what the Ross Store looked like after the explosion.
