Regarding Arts and Crafts Building. Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright as a secondary residence to Hollyhock House, it later became a youth art center known as the Arts and Crafts Building. The 1994 Northridge Earthquake damaged the building and it was closed. A five-year-long restoration began in 2018. Today it is known as Residence A.
