Sunset Strip




Welcome to Sunset Strip

Also known as Tinseltown, Hollywood and the Sunset Strip became the hub of the movie industry in the 1910s
 
The 1910s is when East Coast filmmakers began moving west to avoid patent lawsuits by Thomas Edison’s Motion Picture Patents Company. The excellent weather and varied geography of Los Angeles made it the perfect place for filming, and by the 1920s most major studios had set up shop here, where it still commands that influence today.
 
Contrary to its reputation, Sunset Strip isn’t all studios and movie lots. This eclectic neighborhood is also home to classic restaurants, shops, and a number of iconic area institutions. The surrounding Hollywood Hills’ quiet, winding streets are dotted with homes, basking beneath its world-famous signage.
