      <![CDATA[We were at the neighborhood business association meetings when this was discussed. Unfortunately, the owner of the Pagoda had left the place in total disrepair. Someone would have had to have torn down and recreated the structure as it was totally out of building/fire code.<br>
<br>
As it is a bank going in and not a chinese restaurant, the structure will not be recreated.<br>
<br>
Blame the previous owner, but don't blame Hollywood or Key Bank.

      <![CDATA[Count me in as another Hollywood resident & business owner who will NOT patronize any company who chooses to destroy rather than preserve an interesting old building, even if it costs a bit more to do so. The short-sightedness of corporations astounds me-had they spent the additional funds to preserve this landmark, it would have paid off ten-fold in goodwill and increased revenue from grateful customers. Pisses me off every time I walk by this corner-brilliant marketing strategy, Key Bank.

      <![CDATA[The owners ARE the bank.  Are you telling me the bank can't be slightly original, sink a little money into the project, and do a little historic preservation at the same time?

      <![CDATA[Christ, it's not the bank's fault. I'm not some spokesman for a big banking business, but in reality, not everything is always someone else's fault.<br>
The Pagoda was architectually unsound and saving it would have cost MORE than building a new one, something the owners obviously couldn't afford.<br>
Sad, but true.

      <![CDATA[I still get confused when people say Hollywood. And then the picture of the pagoda and I was reading this whole thing like it was about LA. And then I thought about narcking you out to the editors for writing about LA, but then decided we were friends and I wouldn't do that. Except I'm also friends with Alison too and I had to weigh my loyalties. Brain trust or karaoke? BRAIN TRUST OR KARAOKE. <br>
<br>
And then I remembered about the Portland neighborhood. <br>
