Los Angeles, California recent comments:

  • The Culver Studios, Ed Ryba (guest) wrote 9 years ago:
    I was born in Culver City, live there now (after living in many other places within California), and am very proud of my home town's history. The very FIRST motion picture ever made west of Chicago was filmed by Thomas Ince, builder of The Culver Studios. It was a silent Western (sound movies didn't yet exist) and was mostly filmed in the Ballona (pronounced BY-Oh-na) Creek area of Culver City. Ince went on to build Triangle Studios (which became MGM, and later Sony) and The Ince Studio (which became, after MANY name changes, "The Culver Studios").
  • Old Hughes Aircraft Plant and Runway (Westchester area now called Playa Vista), Ed Ryba (guest) wrote 9 years ago:
    I remember the Hughes Aircraft facility (or as we used to call it, "Huge Aircrash"), located just below the mesa upon which Loyola-Marymount College is built, and literally inches East of Lincoln Boulevard. As you drove North on Lincoln from where it crossed Manchester Boulevard, Lincoln went down the hill from the top of the mesa to near sea level at Jefferson Boulevard. All the way down (and up) that hill, there were signs posted along Lincoln that read "Beware of Low-Flying Aircraft". I never saw the aircraft, but I often saw the signs.

  • Devonshire House, Rich (guest) wrote 9 years ago:
    Its address is actually 18300 Lemarsh St, Northridge, CA ~ Originally it was 18250 Devonshire St. The house was built by John B Moises of Northridge, CA in 1952 (Building Permit) ... No documents have been found associating this house to Carole Lombard or the Gable's. In addition, none were found for the Hutton's ~ although, most likely erred in translation, Marion Hutton does have reference to 10058 Reseda Blvd ... the west end of Northridge Recreational Center.
  • West Adams Gardens, Donald Ferguson wrote 9 years ago:
    West Adams Gardens is a private street that runs between West Adams Blvd. and West 27th Street. Beware of urban myths, especially those fueled by college students. West Adams Gardens (1920) predates the Olympic Village (1932) by 12 years. Yet Olympic Village is brandished in wrought iron on the entry gates on West Adams Blvd. I guess it is a nice marketing ploy and some will believe it.
  • Dalmatian-American Club of San Pedro, devor wrote 9 years ago:

    Former home of Actor James Garner
  • Former Cedars of Lebanon Hospital Building, Geoffrey Rowe (guest) wrote 9 years ago:
    The Hollywood screen actress Anne Shirley gave birth to her daughter, Julie Payne, in this hospital in July 1940. I've read that her husband, John Payne, drove her there. But I think she did not stay in more than a few days.

  • Laurel & Hardy - the "Music Box" steps, Beto (guest) wrote 9 years ago:
    Wow. I used to walk these steps as a kid with my mother on her way to work. A damn dog would run up and down on the left side of the stair case, terrorizing me half way up the climb. Never knew it had historical meaning until now. Thanks, Aaron Rift!

  • The Dream Center, Mike (guest) wrote 10 years ago:

  • Dead Man's Curve, Art (guest) wrote 10 years ago:
    Also one on Mulholland Drive heading westerly just past Skyline Drive.
  • Dead Man's Curve, Art (guest) wrote 10 years ago:
    According to the song it's the first curve going west past Doheny, "He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve But I pulled her out and there we were At Dead Man's Curve" Which makes sense, a little over a mile of near straight road from Doheny to build up speed into the curve at Greenway Drive. Doesn't say anything about going through all the other curves to get to it.
