 Historic Laguna Beach Villa Estate Goes on the Market
The historic Mediterranean- and Mission-style Villa Rockledge estate in Laguna Beach, Calif., perched on a high cliff along private Laguna Beach overlooking the Pacific Ocean, went on the market June 10 with an asking price of $35 million. The 8,500-square-foot villa, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, was designed by Southern California builder Frank A. Miller and architect Arthur Benton, known for their Mission Revival Style architecture. 
 Division1 Architects’ Lacey Condo Celebrates DC’s Moment with Communal Luxury

All of this means that there probably isn’t a better time for Division1 Architect’s Lacey condominium building.
