Here we have a very early view of Hollywood. This is from 1915 and we’re looking at the corner of Hollywood and Highland where the Hollywood Hotel sits amid still-quite-short palm trees, and a Red Car is rattling along Highland Ave. In the background, up on the hill, we can see the house which the Bernheimer brothers began building in 1911 to house their collection of Asian treasures. The building is still there, and is now a Japanese restaurant called Yamashiro.
