By Lilasuka Devi Dasi<\/strong><\/p>\n Prabhupada\u2019s Palace Restoration Committee explored the options discussed at the Community Dialog November 1st, 2014, in regards to the restoration of the Palace wall: 1. The wall was requested to be constructed by Srila Prabhupada and was built in 1977.<\/p>\n 2. Its mass evokes security both physically and metaphorically, controls the flow of visitors and deters vandalism to the Palace and grounds<\/p>\n 3. This visual screen blocks views to the vehicular traffic and parking lots from within the Palace grounds<\/p>\n 4. There is a wonderful sense of arrival created upon entering through the guard house gate and seeing the Palace and \u201csecret garden\u201d within.<\/p>\n 5. The windows are open yet contain decorative iron grills that offer a peak through the wall and yet reinforce the sense of security. Prabhupada\u2019s Palace Restoration Committee explored the options discussed at the Community Dialog November 1st, 2014, in regards to the restoration of the Palace wall: A) remove the existing wall in its entirety and B) provide an open and more visually transparent type of wall such as a metal fence The committee decided after consultation with the architect Gus Kayafas to start the renovation of the Palace wall as previously proposed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15004","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-iskcon-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=15004"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15006,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004\/revisions\/15006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=15004"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=15004"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=15004"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
