My Hollywood Star
She's seen better days

These Hollywood structures were once the cat's meow. They are now just waiting for the crane and wrecking ball. Once packed with movie fans and live theatre and radio audiences, now they just serve the homeless as places to crash for the night. A part of Hollywood's seedier side but still maintaining a bit of faded splendor.

This theatre was a popular spot for moviegoers as recently as the 1980s. I worked here as an extra once during a filming of a theatre scene in a TV series.
