The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles is launching a revitalization plan for the infamous property that ha been a staple of Beverly Hills for the past 50 years.
Some of the highlighted improvements are the following:
Not only are there many financial benefits for the city of BH and its residents, but it will improve the landscape of the this infamous intersection. I have grown up in L.A. all my life and felt that L.A., specifically the city of BH needs a project like this for the city and its visitors. BH has gotten very stale as of late, and its residents, specifically the older ones, don't want to change it at all.
CHANGE IS GOOD.
Change brings new opportunity, new business and brings excitement to a community. Not only this, but the project itself is pretty impressive. I'm a big fan of luxury and architecture, and there's lots of it in this revitalization plan.
There is a ballot for Beverly Hills residents this November 2008 put on my an organization trying to stop this revitalization plan. VOTE YES to revitalize the city.
It's important to think about the present, and more importantly the future...not dwell in the past.
Here are some photos of the before & after plans.

Christopher Haines is a graphic designer from Perth, Australia.
I'm really into this style, he blends digital illustration with typography, photo-manipulations, to full blown 3d matte paintings and surreal landscape.
During my trip in NYC, I had the chance to visit one of our new leather suppliers.

Tried Yogurt Land for the first time yesterday, it was amazing.
This place is a self serve yogurt place, similar to Pinkberry, but better. Dee put me on this, and all I have to say is watch out Pinkberry.
They even have my favorite ice cream flavor in yogurt form: Pistachio.
The Scorpion, a hydrogen fuel injected hybrid, is built by auto design & manufacturing company out of Austin, Texas.
The vehicle utilizes new 'hydrogen on demand' technology, which, simply put, generates water from the inbuilt tank, turns it into hydrogen and then injects this into the car's system.
Everyone needs a pair of these silver boots I just got from Pierre Hardy.
