Thank you for vlogging the towers and appreciating them. Thank you, also, for clarifying it is in a safe neighborhood. I was at a Jimmy Carter Work Project in Watts a few years ago. It is an area with an important history. I found the people to be very kind and appreciative.
What dedication Simon Rodia had for his work of art❣️ Thanks Jordan for documenting this for us. Jah looks adorable at the beginning of this video. More memories with Breck!👍⭐️ Precious. ⭐️
Woe,I don't know how many times I've seen this but never clicked it. Who knows why we avoid some videos and click on others.🤦🤷..maybe was the right day. I said I'm going to click this on and watch it.👍. It was one of the most amazingly beautiful piece of art I have ever seen. It's beautiful.the time it took to create this was worth it. Simon was a Artist, a creative genius. This was worth watching. I'm glad it's protected. Thanks Jordan. The idiot I am just watched, Loved and Appreciated it. 👍👏👏👏. Love, respect and positivity always. Vee J.✌️🖖✨🕯️💓🌻🦋🌠🙂👋.
That is a great place. And what drive. Living in a small shack, and always working when he wasn't working for money. Amazing man, story, and legacy. I need to go back soon. Cheers.
Just Wow !! What magnificent structures and love your song to go with it . Awesome job Jordan , your videos get better and better . I love history like this. There was a man in the UK that made ornate bespoke statues . Can't think of his name at the moment but will confirm everything to me . They are mainly, steel and bronze but if you ever visit the UK they are a must . They are not all , in one place they're scattered all over but the sculptor lived about fifteen Miles from me in Herefordshire.
Amazing 😍 this video is a treat for the eyes & ears . Great art & spot on music choice , I enjoyed this so much it's going in my save file. I could actually spend hours looking at each tiled section of I had the chance .
I really enjoy your vlogs I also want to say great choice in music when your showing the pics I also wanted to ask you if there was any shows or movies that has these structures in it ? Please let me know and also on behalf of the people here in Washington state I want to say THANK YOU !!! And keep up the great work
I know the artist is from Italy, but there are structures of architecture in Barcelona that have this style of construction...man I look at this and feel like I'm in Spain. Glad the community decided to keep this. And as far as the structure integrity, well SoCal gets it's fair share of earthquakes and yet the towers still stand. BTW What happened to Simon?
@Someonesaidthis, I think you were exactly right! As an artist, I would never want to put somebody else’s work down. It is truly amazing and beautiful! But I believe he decorated it. He did not make the foundation or the initial structure. It is much older than that . Antiquetech!
My great gramma was friends with Simon, she helped gather old dishes and other assorted pottery.
+Irishglen6 that's incredible

Before learning about the history of those towers, i thought it was a old power station, that was converted by some hipster 😅

So even if you pay you cant take pics from the inside?
Yes
Pics are OK, no video
@@DazewithJordantheLion thanks for the reply!
Who sings that song ?
do you pay to go in ??
+Cristina Perez yes
Isn't Watts in the ghetto? My parents told me never go there when I was young.
Interesting place! Similar in some way to the Bruno Weber Park (weberpark.ch) in Switzerland
