Hi, everyone! I was surfing the internet for information on the James West Mansion and I found this site. I really want to save this beautiful building, and I'm happy to see that so many others feel the same way. Perhaps a group of us could work together as investors to buy the home.

If you have any ideas on how to save this mansion, please reply to me here or contact me privately at SavetheJWMansion at gmail dot com .

And if anyone has already started a preservation group dedicated to this building, please let me know so that I can join!

There is in fact a non-profit organization whose sole purpose is to save the West Mansion called Preserved in Time. They tried to save the mansion once before and even had the funds to purchase it from the Pappas family but for reasons unknown the Pappas family would not sell it to them (possibly because they wanted to hold out for more money, but we don't know). I'm in the process of writing a magazine article to try to get the word out (if it gets published). Even if it doesn't get published, I will come back here to post the contact info for Preserved in Time. They will be needing volunteers to help try to save it one last time. I just met with the founder and CEO this afternoon for an interview and the wheels are currently in motion for a second go at saving the mansion. Public support is greatly needed!!

Looking for contact info on Mr. Olajuwon. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get into contact with him? I'm a student at UHCL and would like to do an article on his recent purchase of the West Mansion and would like to try to interview him or one of his representatives.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Mandy
