Information
has gloss	eng: The Hillview is a historical building, located on Hollywood Boulevard, that is considered Hollywoods first "artists" high-rise. It was founded in 1917 by movie moguls, Jesse L. Lasky, co-founder of Paramount Pictures and his brother-in-law Samuel Goldwyn, co-founder of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, better known as MGM. It was one of Hollywood's only apartment buildings at the time willing to rent to aspiring actors, as they were considered a financial risk by most apartment building owners. In fact, it catered specifically to actors. It quickly became a Hollywood hot spot. The vast basement housed a rehearsal space until Rudolph Valentino reputedly converted it to a speakeasy. Former big-screen residents include, Mae Busch, Stan Laurel and Viola Dana. Charlie Chaplin was once a proprietor of the Hillview. The Hillview eventually slipped into obscurity and went into ruin, suffering structural damage during the 1994 Northridge earthquake.
