    I owned a home in the hills twenty years ago and know the area well… going down Sunset, I noticed my bank is gone, no more House of Blues and Tower Records is now a Supreme store. I used to ride my bike from my house up to the observatory… then past the Hollywood sign and then back into my home. Great times. I now live in Tokyo and wouldn’t go back but I will always have fond memories.

      @Omwvlog  6 місяців тому +3

      Oh nice! What street did you live on? I remember when the sunset strip was very popular with celebrities. I remember going to tower records.. Virgin records store on sunset closed a while back before Tower did. Tokyo must me amazing to live at!

      @@Omwvlog yeah, I remember sunset as well, growing up in the 70s. My dad worked for the Southern California Gas Co and his area was Hollywood and Berverly and Hollywood Hills. I used to call him “gasman to the stars” cause he was always going to stars homes and meeting them. He met Elvis one day and my dad was a huge fan. In fact, he had Elvis call me at school when I was in first grade on that day but I was already on my way home. Sometimes my dad would let me take a day off and he would also and we would drive up to Hollywood from Torrance and he would give me a driving tour of where all the stars homes he had visited. He even went to the Manson house and he didn’t know it at the time but said there was something evil he felt there, wasn’t till he got back to the headquarters in Beverly Hills did he find out where he had been. Yeah, I used to live up Canyon Drive off of Franklin. My neighbor was a television producer, Brad and Jennifer lived up the street from me, I used to run into Fiona Apple all the time at the market and that’s where a lot of stars that lived in Hollywood bought food. It was the Mayfair when I lived there but now it’s something else. I had the smallest house in the neighborhood but it was the coolest because it had a gate at the entrance and I had a fantastic view looking west at the other mountain side on the west side of Canyon Dive. Hollywood is a crazy place… love it here in Tokyo. Totally different life for me here. Funny thing about Virgin megastore… seems like almost every time I would go to check out some music I would run into “Fabio”!… I must have run into him at least a dozen times and I would also see him driving around Hollywood in a green Bentley with his two dogs. I think he actually worked out at a gym in the complex which was why he was there so much but yeah, he started to recognize me as well! Lol! Lots of crazy stories about Hollywood.

    The labyrinth of quietly nestled homes surrounded by such a big city is a startling concept. Almost more old world European. The cool thing is that you see so many ‘new concept’ homes that were probably built in the 50s and 60s not looking dilapidated but instead updated to look as cool and chic as ever. Very nice immersive car ride adventure keep ‘em coming. 👍

    This was a very relaxing drive to watch. Beautiful scenery, very plush expensive homes and obviously a very exclusive neighborhood. Being from a small ( very impoverished ) town in Manchester, in the UK, the one thing that strikes me as being the great leveller is the fact that, there in the famous Hollywood hills as in my home town, your scenery is blighted by the same blue, brown,green, black assortment of refuse/ recycling bins. Nice video! I'll be dropping by again.

      As a tourist, I decided to try a little exploration in the Laurel Canyon side roads. I turned onto Lookout Mountain and almost immediately started having a panic attack. I had to do a very awkward 17-point turn and head back out. Go deep into the Laurel Canyon hollars and you’ll end up on rickety one-lane roads where if you swerve a few feet to the side, you’ll go tumbling down a ravine.

    George Harrison stayed at a friend's house on Blue Jay Way and he wrote a song about it - the opening lyrics of "Blue Jay Way" goes "There's a fog upon L.A., And my friends have lost their way, We'll be over soon they said, Now they've lost themselves instead" - now looking down upon LA from a house on Blue jay Way, I finally know what he was talking about

    First let me say I enjoyed the video.
    It was shocking to see those homes and how they were built into those hills.
    I watch the tv show
    Million Dollar Listings LA and they are always mentioning the “ Bird Streets.”
    The hills!!!!!! Who in their right mind would buy a home there?
    Where are the sewers in the streets for water run off?
    I couldn’t even imagine what the streets must look like in a regular rain storm!
    Can’t imagine what is going on with rain water to the houses in the bottom of the hills.
    Some of those homes are carved into the hillside. No wonder the homes slide off the hills with heavy rain.
    I wouldn’t take one of those homes for free!!!!
    I have to say the view from some of the streets are spectacular but who sits outside all the time watching the view?
    Your video was very informative and I thank you for spending your time making the video.
    First time on your channel. I will be watching your other videos as well.
    The Bird Streets? Not for me.
    Any prospective buyers?
    Run for the hills!!!
    (Excuse the pun!)
    The lower streets seem to be much better.

      The terrain in the hills is always shifting. It goes with the territory. You can completely repave all those streets and within a short time they'll exhibit the the same stress. While these hilly roads don't look like they're well maintained they actually are. Asphalt is more flexible vs, concrete. It gives and it's much easier to just patch. Concrete roads can crack severly in the hills, Kind regards.

      I've always wondered how it would be to drive on the other side. Definitely would freak me out too! LOL Thanks for watching!

    I love LA. I was born there and grew up in the 'burbs. I had my prom dinner at Scandia right on the corner of Sunset and where you turned right on Doheny. Yeah I'm dating myself but love that I'm here to share this. I have lived in Seattle most of my life and love it, but am still a LA kid at heart.

      Yah LA is great! What part of the burbs did you live? Early this morning it rained like the PNW!

    Beautiful Craftsman at 15:38.
    More traffic cones in this area than the interstate.

    🇬🇧 It seems strange not to see any pavements/ sidewalks.
    Thank you for your video. Much appreciated.
    Ps. I always want to be near a hospital

      Yah I've noticed much of the hills don't have sidewalks. The nearest hospital is Cedar's Sinai Hospital in West Hollywood which is pretty close to this area. Thanks for watching!
