Ray Bradbury home's demise has LA re-examining its history

This Wednesday, Jan. 14, 2015, photo, shows a house being demolished that science fiction writer Ray Bradbury lived in, in the Cheviot Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles. It was the house where Bradbury wrote "Something Wicked This Way Comes," and when the bulldozer came to knock it down literary scholars and preservationists were aghast. The bright yellow home with the big bay windows where the author lived and worked for 54 years wasn't the first Los Angeles landmark to be flattened of course. The statuesque Ambassador Hotel, where Robert Kennedy was assassinated in 1968, is now the site of a public-school complex.
