Los Angeles County, City of North Hollywood
| North Hollywood, like
most of the rest of the San Fernando Valley, was once part of the vast
landholdings of the Franciscan Mission San Fernando Rey de España, which were
confiscated by the government during the Mexican period of rule. The Treaty of
Cahuenga which ended the U.S.-Mexican fighting in California was signed at
Tomás Feliz's adobe house at Campo de Cahuenga on Lankershim Boulevard in
January of 1847. The area was formerly known as Lankershim, but was
subsequently renamed North Hollywood in an effort to capitalize on the glamour
and proximity of Hollywood proper. North Hollywood today is extremely diverse,
with large Latino, Asian-American, Jewish, Armenian, Middle Eastern and
African-American populations. In 1997, the nationally infamous "North
Hollywood shootout" between the LAPD and two heavily armed gunmen who were
caught in the act of robbing a Bank of America branch on Laurel Canyon
Boulevard, occurred over a period of several hours between Victory Boulevard
and Vanowen Street in central North Hollywood. |
