Hollywood Snapshots

Over the last few years, Hollywood’s revival has moved eastward along Hollywood Boulevard or, as movie fans know it, the star-paved Walk of Fame. Most of the recent renewal has been concentrated around Hollywood and Vine, the city’s most famous intersection. While souvenir shops and tattoo parlors are still part of the area’s kitschy charm, they now share sidewalk space with luxury hotels, wine bars, a farmer’s market, upscale bars, restaurants and nightlife.
