great great grandpa

Percival R. Pereira was an architect way back when. I don't know many details, other than the fact that he designed many homes in the Pasadena, CA area.

Today, my grandmother tipped me off to another one of his accomplishments: The Oriental Theatre of Detroit

I found some photos on the web of the site before the destroyed it and put a parking lot up in its place... Check it out

Just one more person of architect background to add to my endless circle of architect relations: my dad is an architect, so is my brother, dad's best friend (Dean of ARCH school), dad's friend's son in LA, a friend of the family, a friend from high school, AND my best friend in Thailand who studied ARCH but didn't pursue the career.

Now I have the great-great-grand daughter of an architect to add to that. Hahah!
