Too bad this house was not built in Beverly Hills; it would still be standing today, and worth millions.

Amusing note: Some film fans drive up and down Sunset Boulevard looking for 10086, as mentioned in the motion picture. There is no such address.

What an ugly, gross office building. Its just more proof money doesnt buy you class.

. une pensee bien triste concernant la maison de JAYNE MANSFIELD le PINK PALACE demolit en 2000 de style mediterraneen ...

What a BEAUTIFUL, MAGICAL HOME- of its time, sadly torn down. Maybe it inspired the Preserved Historic Homes. For a CAPITALIST BUSINESS could have gone in a rather derilect plot. Rather sad, to make one’s community without history on the land- sacred, or historically defended.

We had faces!!!!!!!!

My favorite feature about these homes was the double-door entrances. They've probably changed some of the but the double doors are still there.

Why did the original owners only stay there one year?

Ugly house, great movie.

Thank You so much for this mini-documentary about the house and the surrounding properties!!

How is it possible to demolish a beautiful house with character, with a life of its own, for a horrible functional building without any charm?

I grew up a block north of the mansion. No family ever occupied the house. It stood as a fenced off, ghostly relic looked after by a caretaker. When Rebel Without a Cause was filmed there in the 1950s, we could stand outside to watch James Dean, Natalie Wood and the whole movie crew. Before demolishing the house in 1957, the owners let the public wander through to bid on architectural artifacts, so I've wandered all around the house. Also noteworthy, the house at 610 S Irving Blvd (The Getty House) at the north end of the block was purchased to become the Los Angeles Mayor's Residence in 1975 (time stamp 4:12).

What a shame it was knocked down

So the house was only some 30-odd years old when it was demolished. LA has a history of renewal, and there was little interest in a house of that size and location for years before it was demolished. ( If there had been, someone would have bought it from Ms. Getty ). Things can look different through the lens of hindsight. I'm sure it would make a fine house today. But sadly, it's gone.

Love the film "Sunset Boulevard". It's a total tragedy that beautiful house was destroyed. It should have been saved. And to be replaced with just another hideous office building 😝

What a noisy Hellhole lol

Ugly ass.building. Like Getty's Soul.

What a shame a beautiful house demolished for greedy oil.

I have passed by the Harbor building not knowing that this was the original location. so sad

What's the background music please?

Rick people waste so much money on their narcissistic whims. To bad the first mansion was not left up and kept up..it was beautiful

This must be near Hancock park.

Getty should have been incarcerated for tearing down this architectural gem ‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼

Windsor Square clearly has an eclectic mixture of architectural styles. I was especially drawn to the houses shown at 4.05 and 4:32. Does anyone have any further information on these two properties, in particular, or on a listing of historic houses in the area? Many thanks!

'Sounds to me that Getty's plan all along was to buy the mansion for its land, demolish it and build his office block on the site. I somehow doubt he ever intended his ex-wife to use the house.

It is sad that this beautiful house was demolished. A house always tells the story not only of thise that lived in, but the story of a whole time

Its a shame that the hard work of several people went to waste, from the idea to the development to the building of the home only to become a derelict wreck.

The piano music on this is stunningly gorgeous . . . I wish I knew what it was . . . Who composed it . . . The name . . . I had to replay the video just to listen to the music!

That mansion didn't have a happy life....

Very interesting video thank you but the sound of the weed wackers and city traffic was a little unnerving. Sunset Boulevard is one of my all-time favorite movies

The house at 4:30 is the official City of Los Angeles Mayors Mansion once used by the former (thank God) Ex-Mayor and corrupt, plus publicly announced he ".....takes it on both ends...." Eric Garcetti

This one makes me sad - these are the bad new days - tourists & plastic dinnerware 😮🤫😉😎

What was the point of this. Also, who edited this for traffic and sound. 😢

Terrible that it was demolished but the location was not great. Really beautiful building though.

So many things in life can be so fleeting. Looking back and finding out how they came to be and what swept them away you sometimes have to marvel at how unknowing we were that it was such a gift we got to experience them. Thank you for sharing.

A GREAT movie - a story well told and creepy as hell. Made a HUGE impression on me as a young man. One of the reasons I'm still a writer...

thx very interesting.

IMO, all of the other houses shown pale in comparison to the Paul Getty house. And it had to be the one torn down. Such a shame. Getty was a strange and cruel man.

What a shame to destroy such a beautiful home...

Those remaining homes are some of the priciest residential real estate in that area today. The Beverly Wilshire district still has many historic homes. Those that made it without being condemned were spared.

Why am I surprised that the mansion was demolished?? Oh LA why do you continue destroy your heritage?

Replaced by a monstrosity.

This information may be somewhat plausible if there was an abundance of evidence that those she is accusing of crimes were in possession of ill-gotten gains. Where ate the multiple homes, the expensive luxury cars, the extravagant jewels and clothing, the champagne and caviar for breakfast, 600-foot yachts, private jets...???????

Gloria Swanson - Watch some of her silent movies. She was a very good actor..

Fascinating! I did not know any of that!

The history of the house follows the very specific Tartaria 'conspiracy' narrative. Building goes up, abandoned, demolished within 100 years..... 😂

It should be said Rebel without cause was also filmed there.

Not least interested as to were the house is but my god what a film absolutely magnificent, but what you expect from Billy Wilder

How sad, looks like it was a beautiful home.

They demolish everything in Los Angeles. You really need assistance to find old landmarks. They also tore down many single family houses to build small apartments. It really is a shame that Los Angeles has lost sp many landmarks.
