PARLOR TALK DIY Advocacy: How To Fight Mansionization In Your Neighborhood Thursday, June 8 | 6:00 - 7:00pm Tickets: Member FREE | Non-Member $5 Mansionization is the practice of demolishing older smaller homes and replacing them with new buildings that are significantly larger and out of character with the surrounding neighborhood.
