What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Arcadia
Teardowns have changed Arcadia block by block, so two neighboring addresses can need opposite reports. A surviving 1950s ranch chimney gets its brick read closely, while a big replacement house gets its unit identified. Any crack here gets logged by height, because the Raymond Fault lies inside town and the Sierra Madre Fault along its foothills. South Coast no-burn alerts also bar wood fires on some winter days, making the fuel in use worth writing down.
