View of Sunset Boulevard in the city of West Hollywood. It shows the Casanova Restaurant located at 8383 Sunset Blvd. offering "Dining & Dancing", it dated back to the 1930s. Several automobiles can be seen driving along the winding road, and numerous homes are nestled on the lush hillside. Upon closer inspection, a large castle-like tower can be seen in the distance (seen in top-center of photo). This might be the famous Chateau Marmont hotel, located at 8221 Sunset Blvd. This great castle on the hill inspired by the architecture of the Loire Valley in France was built in 1927, opened in 1929 as an apartment house, and was changed to a hotel in 1931, becoming the "Hotel to the Stars". Sunset Boulevard is a long winding thoroughfare that begins in downtown Los Angeles and runs westward over 20 miles, ending at the Pacific Ocean near Malibu. The best-known portion of the boulevard is the mile and a half stretch between Hollywood and Beverly Hills, known as "The Sunset Strip".
