The Beer Can House is looking good. One thing though -- we did notice a handful of 7Up cans were used on the house. Those must have been from when he had a hangover.

Here is view of the beer can house in May, 2007. The beer can siding and fences are intact, but all the can tab curtains appear to have been removed.

[Matt Kirby, 07/20/2007]

Ronna Linder sent us a similar observation and noted "There is a sign on the property that indicates that the 'Orange Show Center for Visionary Art' is now preserving the property and may have removed all of the beer cans as part of the restoration (whatever that may entail)."
