UGLY ARCHITECTURE 2: Oy vay iz meer

This house is located in the Mid Wilshire area. It is surrounded by classic L.A. 40's Spanish and Craftsman style homes. I wonder what the house that once stood here looked like. I hope it was decayed beyond belief. 


It's so big. And square. 
I like the idea of the entry...it's almost brown-stone-ish. 
The tree is nice.

How should I look at this? Strickly on a critical level? That seems bitchy. 
Should I think about what someone could do to the house short of knocking it down and starting over? 
The windows are OK if not lacking in any sort of rhyme or reason from the exterior.
The totally flat front facade is awful from top to bottom. The balconies are silly. The balcony covers are sillier. The enormous arched window is enormous. And the colonnade across the top is totally fakakta. 

The lights are no good, especially the wee little guy floating in the center of that side wall. Poor little thing out in the middle of nowhere...

Call Ashleigh ASAP!
