  • Live on the Sunset Strip
    robert landau Excerpt: Live on the Sunset Strip The street that made music history Robert Landau’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Billboards of the Sunset Strip was published in October 2012 by Angel City Press. Downloaded from http://online.ucpress.edu/boom/article-pdf/2/4/79/381413/boom_2012_2_4_79.pdf by guest on 28 September 2021 The Sunset Strip is that 1.7-mile stretch of Sunset Boulevard that is now part of the city of West Hollywood, connecting Hollywood on the east (where funky Laurel Canyon descends to Sunset and meets Crescent Heights) with Beverly Hills to the west (where Doheny Road climbs to the posh mansions of 90210-land). There are actually many Sunset Strips—versions that live in real time and space, and versions that live in our collective fantasy. The actual landscape of the Strip is typical of Los Angeles, featuring buildings of every imaginable architectural style, a look captured perfectly by artist Ed Ruscha in his 1966 book Every Building on the Sunset Strip. Outdoor advertising permeates the vista, ready to capture the attention of the steady stream of eyeballs that comes with continuously heavy traffic. Billboards of varying sizes are sandwiched between and above colorful hotels, restaurants, offices, gas stations, sleazy strip malls, and trendy retail shops. Now, thanks to digital technology, billboards engulf entire buildings and cover whole city buses, adding even more visual congestion to an already over- saturated urban scene. By day, the Sunset Strip was where the business of the music industry was conducted in the Sixties and Seventies. Both high-rise luxury offices and older, cottage-style buildings have long housed record companies, producers, talent scouts, business managers, personal managers, public relations executives, advertising agencies, design firms, and even a few film, photo, and recording studios.

    Guide to the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, 1875-1972 Brooklyn Public Library Grand Army Plaza Brooklyn, NY 11238 Contact: Brooklyn Collection Phone: 718.230.2762 Fax: 718.857.2245 Email: [email protected] www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org Processed by Lisa DeBoer, Lisa Castrogiovanni and Lisa Studier. Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

  • An American Tour: 131
    An American Tour: 131 Hollywood’s Ciro’s Ciro's (later known as Ciro's Le Disc) was a nightclub in West Hollywood, California, at 8433 Sunset Boulevard, on the Sunset Strip, opened in January 1940 by entrepreneur William Wilkerson. Herman Hover took over management of Ciro's in 1942 until it closed its doors in 1957. Hover filed for bankruptcy in 1959, and Ciro's was sold at public auction for $350,000. Ciro's combined a luxe baroque interior and an unadorned exterior and became a famous hangout for movie people of the 1940s and 1950s. It was one of "the" places to be seen and guaranteed being written about in the gossip columns of Hedda Hopper, Louella Parsons and Florabel Muir. Among the galaxy of celebrities who frequented Ciro's were Marilyn Monroe, Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner, Sidney Poitier, Anita Ekberg, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, Joan Crawford, Betty Grable, Marlene Dietrich, Ginger Rogers, Ronald Reagan, Dean Martin, Mickey Rooney, Cary Grant, George Raft, George Burns and Gracie Allen, Judy Garland, June Allyson and Dick Powell, Mamie Van Doren, Jimmy Stewart, Jack Benny, Peter Lawford, and Lana Turner (who often said Ciro's was her favorite nightspot) among many others. During his first visit to Hollywood in the late 1940s, future President John F. Kennedy dined at Ciro's. In 1968, Ciro's became a Sunset Strip rock and roll club which was called "It's Boss" after being briefly renamed "Ciro's Le Disc" in 1965 and "The Kaleido- scope" two years later.

  • Historic Context & Associated Property Types
    CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD HISTORIC CONTEXT COMMERCIAL HISTORIC RESOURCES SURVEY SHERMAN AND ADJACENT COUNTY LANDS 1895 - 1925 HISTORIC CONTEXT & ASSOCIATED PROPERTY TYPES Sherman and Adjacent County Lands 1895 - 1925 The City of West Hollywood began as a small community associated with the railroad. Laid out first as a railyard for the Los Angeles Railway, a town began to develop as land around the yard was subdivided. Largely agricultural at first, the town of Sherman began to take shape. Soon the lots were developed with spacious residences in the hills, and homes that were more modest to the south. Sherman’s growth accelerated after the arrival of the motion picture industry in the late 1910s. Its location between Hollywood, home to the burgeoning industry, and Beverly Hills, a new residential haven for Hollywood’s elite, made Sherman an attractive place for those in the motion picture industry, stars and workers alike, to unwind. Much of the town’s development in the first decades of the twentieth century was driven by its location between Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Tract map showing original blocks comprising the Town of Sherman, 1896. It is unclear if the name Sherman was used as a place name for all of present-day West Hollywood or simply the western side of the modern city. The names of several streets on the map have changed. Clark Street became San Vicente Boulevard. Sherman Avenue became Santa Monica Boulevard.
