Hollywood Forever Cemetery, originally named Hollywood Cemetery, is one of the oldest cemeteries in Los Angeles. It is located at 6000 Santa Monica Boulevard in the Hollywood district of Los Angeles. Paramount Studios is located at the south end of the same block on 40 acres which were once part of the cemetery, but held no interments.

Those in the graves, crypts, niches, and sarcophagi at the cemetery include culturally significant people as well as celebrities, including iconic actors, directors, writers, etc. from the entertainment industry. People who played vital roles in shaping Los Angeles are interred throughout the property. The cemetery is active and regularly hosts community events, including music and summer movie screenings. In 2011, the cemetery acted as co-production company for the American silent movie Silent Life based on the story of the Hollywood idol Rudolph Valentino, who is famously entombed there in what was originally a borrowed crypt.

The cemetery contained a Confederate Monument, maintained by the Long Beach chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy until Tuesday, August 15, 2017

The Hollywood Citizen-News Building is a two-story commercial building located at 1545-1551
North Wilcox Avenue on the west side of Wilcox Avenue between Selma Avenue and Sunset
Boulevard in Hollywood. Designed in the Art Deco architectural style, the subject property was
constructed between 1930 and 1931 by architect Francis D. Rutherford (1883-1933). The
building served as the headquarters for the Hollywood Citizen-News, operated by Harlan G.
Palmer, Sr. (1885-1956) and his family, from 1931 until the paper ceased publication in 1970.
Hollywood Citizen-News evolved into the fourth largest newspaper in Los Angeles.
The former home of the Hollywood Citizen News newspaper, now an office building, has been sold for more than .5 million to Los Angeles investor SE Edinger.

Brentwood Capital Partners sold the two-story building at 1545 Wilcox Ave., said real estate broker Trevor Belden of Industry Partners.

Constructed in 1930, the art deco structure designed by architect Francis D. Rutherford was the production headquarters for the Hollywood Citizen News. The newspaper operated under various owners from the 1930s to the early 1970s.

The building, which is located between Hollywood and Sunset boulevards, underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation in 2006 to cater to the tastes of tenants in the media and entertainment industries. It has high ceilings, skylights, operable windows and patios on the second floor.

The 49,000-square-foot building was 94% leased at the time of sale to a variety of entertainment industry tenants, including Larson Studios and Partizan Entertainment, Belden said
