Mr Pickles ruled demolishing the streets would be shortsighted as regards the future tourism potential of Madryn Street.

Joe Anderson, the Labour Mayor of Liverpool, said the ruling was a kick in the teeth for people who wanted to see new homes built in the area.

Welsh Streets is a collective term for the 16 streets that once housed a generation of migrant workers from Wales.

Towards the end of the 19th Century there were 70 Welsh chapels in Liverpool and almost a quarter of its population, around 80,000 people, were Welshman who crossed the border in search of work.

Following protests by campaigners, the demolition project was changed to protect the musicians former home but heritage campaigners argued the demolition of much of the rest of Madryn Street would harm its historical value and its potential for tourism.

The Welsh Streets demolition scheme was first outlined in 2005 as part of Labours controversial Pathfinder project.

Pathfinder proposed for the wholesale demolition of Victorian properties in nine areas but the project was criticised by the National Audit Office, and cancelled by the Coalition Government in 2010. However, Liverpool City Council had been seeking to continue with the project by demolishing Welsh Streets.

Norms restaurant on La Cienega Boulevard -- considered a model of Googie architecture with its vaulted roof and neon sign -- may face the wrecking ball unless a city commission decides Thursday whether to take up its status as a historic monument.

UPDATE: City commission to review Norms historic and cultural monument status

Owners of the restaurant obtained a demolition permit on Jan. 5 from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety, according to online permit records.

On Thursday, the citys Cultural Heritage Commission will decide whether to initiate the process of designating the restaurant a historic monument.

Launching the review process would shield the building from demolition in the interim, according to the Los Angeles Conservancy, which submitted the historic monument application for Norms in December.

Built in 1956, the 24-hour coffee shop was designed by Louis Armet and Eldon Davis, whose Armet & Davis architecture firm rolled out buildings with soaring roofs and kitschy neon lights.

The pair dreamed up blueprints for other Southern California-launched chains such as Dennys and Bobs Big Boy, and corporate expansions took the Googie style national.

But such Googie buildings are exceedingly rare, giving urgency to saving the Norms, said Adrian Scott Fine, advocacy director for the Los Angeles Conservancy.

Theyre really symbolic of Southern California postwar culture, Fine said about Googie buildings.

If the five-member commission decides to start the review process -- which may entail a site visit to Norms -- a second hearing would see a vote on whether to recommend the restaurant as a historic monument.

GRANITE CITY Illinois transportation officials will close a stretch of Interstate 270 in both directions Tuesday to demolish one of the old eastbound Chain of Rocks Canal bridges.

It will be the first of three explosive demolitions of the two 50-year-old I-270 canal bridges, which were replaced last year with a new span.

IDOT officials encourage motorists to use another route that morning. The highway will close in both directions at 10 a.m. Tuesday and is expected to reopen within two hours.

Members of the public will have a limited opportunity to view the demolition at the east end of the old Chain of Rocks Road Mississippi Canal Bridge. Parking will be available on a limited basis off West Chain of Rocks Road, west of Illinois Route 3. Spectators will have to walk to the viewing area.

Traffic-control measures will be in place to guide westbound drivers around the closure.

The stretch of I-270 carries nearly 55,000 vehicles a day.
