HOLLYWOOD HISTORY
Hollywood, the magnificent foothill town!
An early Hollywood street, circa 1890s (LAPL)
Below is an ad that appeared in the Los Angeles Times on November 13, 1888 to advertise the sale of property in the new community of Hollywood – an interesting read. The seller is H.H. Wilcox, the founder of Hollywood.

Oh that is so cool, and I am really impressed with the sidewalks being installed at that time.
