These legendary 50-foot-tall letters stand high above the L.A. basin where it can be widely seen by city dwellers. The sign was originally put up in 1923 as a marketing tool for housing developments in the Hollywood Hills, it was four letters longer back then reading “HOLLYWOODLAND.” In the 1970’s the signs began to wear down, so the city updated the famous symbol and promoted it as a tourist attraction.
