The article looks at the Trousdale section of Los Angeles, California as of October 2013, focusing on its modernist, midcentury architecture. Topics include the area's development in the 1950s by real estate investor Paul Trousdale, the neighborhood's decline in the 1970s and subsequent revival in the 2010s, and efforts to preserve some of the neighborhood's houses as historical landmarks.
