135th Anniversary of Hollywood

Map of the original tract map proposed by HH Wilcox.

135 years ago on February 1, 1887, Harvey Henderson Wilcox submitted his tract map for a subdivision called Hollywood to the Los Angeles County Registrar's office, and Hollywood as we know it was born. Our video tells the story of how Hollywood grew out of the dreams and work of two visionaries, Harvey and Daieda Wilcox.

Our Hollywood Heritage team members Angie Schneider and Mary Mallory made this excellent video about the anniversary. Please Enjoy!
