We got into the mood for some LA noir last night watching the durable "Sunset Boulevard," which mentions many of the addresses in the Los Feliz neighborhood where we're spending this week with an old friend.
Today we drove past some of those places, then down Sunset Boulevard to see this fabulous garden and mansion now owned by the city of Beverly Hills.
Commanding a sweeping view across the entire city and on to the ocean, the real estate overlooks Hollywood Boulevard where tourists scrum in search of glamor and the essence of this town. Few seem to make it this far; it's a pity.
