History Of The Origin Of The Town Hollywood

Did you know that Hollywood had planned to become a model community whose inhabitants are free from booze? The area was discovered by the Wilcox family, who bought the land in 1887.

One time, Mrs. Wilcox was sitting on the train, next to a woman who has a summer house by the name "Hollywood. " Apparently Mrs. Wilcox likes the sound of the name. Finally he chose the name Hollywood to name the area.

For 20 years, Hollywood is a village with 500 residents with no more serious problems than how to keep their sheep to not wander around the village square.

Ten years later, Hollywood turned into a national film center for two reasons. First, the weather allows lengthy period of filmmaking. Second, the filmmakers often worry sued for copyright infringement. Because Hollywood is close enough to Mexico, then they can cross the border to get legal immunity if necessary.

Hollywood sign was originally written the name "Hollywoodland, " which is an expression of advertisement for housing development company. However, the four letters after the name was eventually discarded, and the words "Hollywood" plastered alongside a hill and hold it until now.
