Sunset Boulevard and Neighborhood Context

The hotel's position on Sunset Boulevard places it in the heart of Beverly Hills' most prominent thoroughfare. The property was developed on land previously owned by Burton Green, an oil tycoon and real estate developer who was attempting to create a residential community in the area. Burton Green named the development Beverly Farms, after his home in Massachusetts, with the plan to position it as "halfway between Los Angeles and the sea." The hotel's construction, beginning in 1911 and opening in May 1912, preceded the formal establishment of Beverly Hills as a city by two years. This early positioning made the hotel a foundational establishment in the area's development.

Hollywood Heritage and Area Development

The Beverly Hills area began attracting Hollywood film figures beginning in 1914, when the city was established. By 1914, Hollywood directors, actors, and actresses—including Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin, Gloria Swanson, Buster Keaton, Rudolph Valentino, and Will Rogers—had purchased homes in the area, transforming the surrounding bean fields into prime real estate. The hotel's early presence helped establish Beverly Hills as the residential center for Hollywood's creative professionals.
