Hollywood Movers

Moving to Tinseltown, the Land of Dreams.

So much has been written about Hollywood that it’s difficult to

separate fact from myth. It is, after all, the place where movies are

made, where fantasy becomes reality, where stars are born and

dreams are given flight.

Most Americans can name dozens of movie stars who have made

their mark here over the last century. Pickford. Barrymore. Davis.

Bogart. Brando. Roberts. Hanks.Jolie.Clooney.

But who’sH.J. Whitley? A Canadian émigré, Whitley is known as

the Father of Hollywood. His early 20th century accomplishments

include the development of one of the area’s first housing areas,

Ocean View Tract, a bank and the famed Hollywood Hotel at the corner of Hollywood and Highland

Boulevards, the current site of Grauman’s Chinese Theater and the Kodak Theater, where the annual

Academy Awards gala is held.

Whitley probably wouldn’t recognize his creation. The name Hollywood has become synonymous with

glitz, glamour and the glorification of motion pictures. Although not a city—Hollywood is actually a

district of Los Angeles and has not separate government—it’s widely believed to be one. Nearly 125,000

people call it home.

As a resident, all the famous, iconic Hollywood

sites will be part of your everyday life: The

Hollywood Walk of Fame, CBS Television City,

Paramount Pictures’ back lot, the Capitol

Records building, the Hollywood Bowl,

Grauman’s Chinese and of course the

celebrated Hollywood sign on Mt. Lee in

Griffith Park.

Hollywood from out of town, or if you’re just

moving from Laurel Canyon to Sunset Hills,

Hollywood Heights to Outpost Estates or

Beachwood Canyon to Melrose Hill, hands-down your best option for moving your possessions is
