West Hollywood, California. West Hollywood has a colorful history that all started with the Indians that filled the area. Eventually the Indians gave way to Mexican land owners and finally the United States took hold of the land and the city was about to be born. As Los Angeles began to fill up many people realized the potential in West Hollywood and the rest is history.
Movie fans throughout the world heard about the Stars and their haunts on the Sunset Strip. Even when the movie colony no longer found Hollywood fashionable and the extravagant night clubs lost favor, the Strip continued to prosper as an attraction for locals and out-of-town tourists who patronized its restaurants, bars and clubs.
In the late ‘60s, the Strip transformed again during the fabulous hippie era. Youngsters from all over the nation flocked to West Hollywood clubs such as the Whiskey A-Go-Go which proved to be a stepping stone to fame for many new musical acts. All of this activity led to the establishment of West Hollywood as the home of a thriving music publishing industry.
In 1983 a grass roots movement to incorporate West Hollywood into a new city took hold. Residents of the area banned together to put the issue to a vote in the November, 1984, election, and the proposal passed with flying colors. Today the City of West Hollywood has established itself as a vibrant, progressive urban village that looks forward to a new era of civic pride and community activity in the years ahead.
