Hollywood, like many cities across the country is rapidly changing. The Travel Office's tour of Public Parking in Hollywood, conducted most recently in November of 2007, looked at the emerging relationship between neighborhood resident groups, speculative developers, architectural preservationists and, of course, tourism.
Our tour visited 2 sites of significance within this emerging and contentious situation: 1. a former parking lot site owned by the largest parkign operator in the Hollywood area that is now the site of a future Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum 2. a concrete traffic triangle slated for beautification by a neighborhood organization that has also been active fighting the pigeon population and efforts to create permanent homeless shelters.
