The Hollywood Sign is the most famous sign in the world. It stretches four stories high and 450 feet long across the top of Mt. Lee in the Hollywood Hills.

Built by Los Angeles Times publisher Harry Chandler as an epic $21,000 billboard for the upscale Hollywoodland real estate development, the “Hollywoodland” Sign quickly took on the role of giant marquee for a city that was constantly announcing its own gala premiere.

Originally intended to last just a year and a half, the Sign has endured more than eight decades – and still going strong. Hollywood is the place where magic is possible, where dreams can come true.
