THIS is a real "long shot" of the Hollywood residential section.
The camera was looking right toward the foothills that bank the north side
of the fair city. Over the hills going through Cahuenga Pass is Universal
City, and west of that is Laurel Canyon, one of the beautiful natural parks
of Hollywood. Many of the stars of filmland have built homes in the Canyon
and others have built cabins farther out, where they spend the summer months.
The tiny houses that dot the landscape in the photo appear to be built
after the same pattern, but each and every one is individual in design.
Many of them are of the old Spanish architecture, others of the Colonial
period and some look as though they might have been imported from Holland.
But all differ from the other.
The larger homes of the stars are in the Beverly Hills section that is
a continuation of Hollywood as one travels westward.
The population of Hollywood is 100,000. |
