You briefly mentioned iconic Hollywood buildings that still survive. I would love to watch a documentary on that topic.

I lived in the Hollywood area for 35 years before retiring in Ireland. In the time I witnessed the changes like Ambassador Hotel torn down for an LA Unfied School Building, The Brown Derby, demolished for a strp Cenre, Sunset Sound Studios iconic recording studios for some of the greatest bands, demolished, and on and on.I did enjoyliving there but as the years went by, the Glitz was slowly eclipsed by Giant Corporate America

I lived above old Hollywood as a small child and visited some of those Hollywood mansions. I went with my father who was a part time actor in his younger years. He was a great friend of Micky Rooney and had even been in bar fights with the man because they were both avid drinkers at the time.

I had the great Good Fortune to be a friend with 1930 star Pat O'Brien and his wife Eloise they told me about the parties at San Simeon weekends I spent there and the goings-on at the beach house they said Marion Davies is one of the kindest people I've ever met she would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. Is this a friendship that I will regard as one of the high points in my life. They were kind to me at a time in my life when I was living in California and things were all going out well. They're both gone now but I remember them so fondly

@@christopherbell1430when I was there there was a little bit of the garden of Allah behind a parking lot just one small Spanish style building I always want to go closer but I never did you could tell it must have been something in its day. I asked Pat about it and he said that he doesn't think he'd ever been there wasn't his sort of thing. He was really a family man you know

How special & beautiful. How in the world would anyone destroy such a landmark in history! It's such a disappointment to see how people don't value such beauty & history! Progress, Isn't all It's cracked up to be. I feel that way about many things, like building big highways where there should never be. Old towns of years gone by. Old cemeteries with highways right next to them, or turning everything into tourist traps were the beauty of these old towns so built up, to the point of being distorted by people with only making as much money as they can off of history. It's a dirty rotten shame! Yes, people would love to see & experience the past but don't destroy It & make It a circus! I believe that's what our beautiful country is now robbed of. Where do Americans learn from the past? Our children see how our past has played such a big part in our future & how much more we could learn & appreciate & maybe emulate when times of application of how we could live a better life. After all, history does repeat Itself & when It does, people don't know how to cope & work It out instead, they slap up crap only to there It down in two years. Everything is such a waste. No pride in yourself or what you can do. I could go on & on, but what's the point, we now live in a thorough away society, no one is satisfied, and everything has to be bigger & better, at least that's what they think! Well, that's my two or three cents, for what It's worth! We can wish & or dream anyway. 🙏🧑🤝🧑🗺🥰💘

When I lived in California in the 1960s I used to pass falcons rare on my way 2 and 4 from my home. From the street I had no idea how beautiful it was it was high on a hill and all you could see was the facade I have no idea how wonderful it was. I never went there to get a closer look because I didn't know if it was occupied or not I'm glad to know that it lasted as long as it did. I do love the view of the beautiful hills behind the house those hills in the 1960s were covered by houses you couldn't see a tree. I'm not sure why he showed so many three-lane highways it did not exist in the twenties.
