Hollywood Hills

The Hollywood Hills is an affluent area of Los Angeles that covers 7.05 Square miles, which is often associated with the iconic Hollywood sign, that sits just atop Bronson Canyon. It's known all over the world as home to celebrities and luxurious estates. The northern border is Mulholland Drive, which is home to Jack Nicholson, the three-time Oscar winner and infamous "bad boy of Mulholland Drive". The westerly border is Laurel Canyon Boulevard, Vermont Avenue being the easterly border and Sunset Drive to the South. The stunning views, particularly to the south often add hundreds of thousands dollars to the homes values.

When you think of the history of The Hollywood Hills, you immediately think of the Hollywood sign and how it got there. The sign was first erected in 1924 as a real estate promotional stunt, that advertised the development of homes being built by developers Woodruff and Shoults, which touted the project as a neighborhood of -"superb environment without excessive cost on the Hollywood side of the hills". The sign initially read HOLLYWOODLAND- but the last four letters fell off and the sign remained as a landmark.
