Built in 1923 by Harry Chandler as billboard for his Hollywoodland real estate development, the Hollywood Sign located on the top of Mount Lee was declared Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #111 in 1973. http://photos.lapl.org/carlweb/jsp/F...Number=5083978

In 1923 Harry Chandler's real estate development Hollywoodland was loosely bounded by Mullholand to the west, Hollyridge Drive to the east and Belden Drive to the south. The Hollywood Sign located on the top of Mount Lee was declared Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #111 in 1973.

The Hollywoodland sign can barely be seen on the left side of Mount Lee in this view taken on a Hollywoodland hike. http://photos.lapl.org/carlweb/jsp/F...Number=5092980
