ArchitectureWeek Description
Hollywood historian David Wallace unveils 25 buildings and homes from Hollywood's Golden Age. An in-depth look at the histories of these structures, as well revelations about many of their famous occupants. Each restored to its original grandeur, the buildings-from private homes to theaters, hotels, restaurants, and hot spots of the day-are showcased in 200 photographs, all specially commissioned for this book, as well as rare historic shots. The portraits of these famed spaces-including the homes of Hollywood superstars such as Cary Grant, Gloria Swanson, Cecil B. DeMille, and Charlie Chaplin, plus locations like Grauman's Chinese Theater and the Max Factor building-demonstrate the innovation, ingenuity, and drive that gave birth to Hollywood.
