I remembetr, as a child (being 80 now) the fabulous villa of Maj. Gen. Walter P. Story, scion of the famous Story and Perry military and cattle baron families. My great-aunt and great-uncle were domestic servants on his estate in Laurel Canyon. THe grounds were magnificent, as was the mansion itself. I have no idea of the structure still exists, but it truly was memorable. I have indelible memories of its splendour and of the grand and generous spirit of the General, one of the leading society figures of Greater L.A. of his times.

2 things I wanted to comment on, Neutra is pronounced Noy-trah. Second is the Katy Perry/Dana Hollister house mixup. There were TWO houses that Dana owned (she also owns a few restaurants and bars in the area) the Paramour (located on Micheltorena Street) the house you featured in your video and you got the original owners correct and the photos were of the Paramour BUT the house/ convent that Katy Perry wanted to buy from the archdiocese was located at 3431 Waverly place. The Paramour was never a convent. It has been used for video and magazine shoots and was opened as a private hotel after she remodeled and you can stay there and book it for parties. But yeah, 2 totally different houses (I lived next door for 2 years, the walk up the hill to the house from Sunset is a killer!!)

Fenyes is the only mansion I was unfamiliar with. Have been on the grounds of many of them, however the only one I've been inside of is The Huntington. Wonderful place with beautiful gardens. Would love to tour any of them. The only other mansion I can think of is the one Marion Davies lived in with William Randolph Heart, the Beverly? I wonder if he died there. Probably privately owned.
