[edit] Add Noguchi's 'California Scenario' to Architecture Section

I was suprised that the architecture section made no mention of the plaza area called "California Scenario" designed by Isamu Noguchi and built at Southcoast in 1982. It is an international prizewinner and a remarkable feature in the plaza landscape. It is also the last major work he did in the United States. I plan to contact Southcoast and the Noguchi Museum (NY) to see if they wish to add this to the article.

Also, I have a few works celebrating "California Scenario" at my site. Does anyone think it would be appropriate to add them as external links?

[edit] Problems with article

Suggestions for improvement...1) No inline citations are included in the article to support the many "facts" stated. This is the most glaring issue with the article, as the reliability of the article is highly questionable at this time; 2) There are a couple of statements that are not written in a neutral point of view. Stating that South Coast Plaza is "...one of the most notable shopping centers in the United States," and "South Coast Plaza is a premiere destination for ultra-luxury and luxury shopping" are clearly POV statements that should be edited to be neutral. -- Gmatsuda (talk) 07:47, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
