The world-famous Los Angeles Hollywood sign once boasted a real swimming pool, complete with bikini models and TV shows.
Los Angeles is a city filled with famous faces and places, though perhaps none more so than the historic Hollywood sign that hangs in the hills above it all. The 50-foot white HOLLYWOOD block letters have been immortalized in popular culture the world over, standing in as a backdrop for an actual place — that being Hollywood, the neighborhood directly beneath the sign — and a pop culture vision of the sprawling, glamorous film and television industry that keeps the world entertained.
There was just one problem: Early television broadcast signals could not traverse over hilly terrain, meaning the Santa Monica Mountains effectively cut Lee’s viewing audience in half geographically. So in 1938, the Don Lee Company bought the flattened Mack Sennett land, and by 1939 had completed a production facility on site, including a 300-foot broadcast antenna — then the tallest in the world.
