  The Sunset Strip
Sunset Boulevard is famous, but the best known portion of the boulevard is the mile and a half stretch of Sunset between Hollywood and Beverly Hills that has been dubbed "The Sunset Strip."
In the evening, the Strip is a vibrant slash of gaudy neon, a virtual traffic jam of young cruisers on weekends, a stimulating mecca for people-watchers and celebrity wannabes.
When the boundary lines were drawn, this stretch of Sunset fell outside of the borders of the city of Los Angeles, and it flourished as an independent region not subject to the city's laws.

 Sunset Boulevard
Sunset Boulevard, one of the world's most famous streets, was born as a route between those two divergent worlds.
Sunset Blvd is a long, winding thoroughfare which begins in downtown Los Angeles, near Olvera Street (the birthplace of the city), and runs westward over 20 miles to the blue Pacific.
At 5746 Sunset Boulevard (at the SE corner of Van Ness) in Hollywood was the Fox Network / KTTV Studios, where they taped "Maude," "One Day at a Time" and "The Jeffersons." However, Fox moved to the West Side, and plans call for a new school to be built on the site.
