You don't need a pair of wings to soar over the City of Angels! Tour Los Angeles like never before with this exciting new book filled with breathtaking sky-high then-and-now images of some of LA's most famous landmarks and locations. Dazzling side-by-side aerial photographs reveal how the greater Los Angeles area--from the Valley to the Pacific--evolved from its humble agricultural roots to its glamorous modern incarnation. Graze along the top of the Hollywood Hills, home to the iconic HOLLYWOOD sign. The sign originally spelled out HOLLYWOODLAND in 1923. It was a PR stunt launched by a local real estate developer, but proved so popular most of the sign is still standing today. Head to Dodgertown and discover the diamond views over Dodger Stadium. While the ballpark's general appearance hasn't changed much since it was completed in 1962, the ballpark and its surrounding area got its own zipcode in 2008, now known as "Dodgertown." Fly over Bel Air after the devastating forest fire of 1960 and discover Beverly Hills in 1922 just as the area was being subdivided. A lot has changed over the years in these exclusive enclaves. Take in all the sights, including Grauman's Chinese Theater, the Brown Derby, Olympic Stadium, and Santa Monica Pier.

A perfect, souvenir-size Then and Now featuring all the best-known tourist locations from Los Angeles, with a number of vintage color photos. Using archive photos paired with their modern equivalent, Los Angeles Then and Now charts the development of the city from the days of orange groves and melon patches and isolated Spanish mission buildings to the staggering metropolis it is today. With a background in the movie business, Rosemary Lord interlaces the arrival of the Hollywood era and the growth of the city she has lived in for twenty-five years. Since its original publication in 2002, Los Angeles Then and Now has been rephotographed, revised with new content, and completely redesigned. This new compact gift edition includes exclusive matchups. Sites include Old Plaza Church, Olvera Street, Chinatown, Union Station, Mayan Theatre, Angel's Flight, Los Angeles Public Library, Biltmore Hotel, Bullocks Wilshire, Hollywood Sign, Griffith Observatory, Sunset and Vine, Egyptian Theatre, Grauman's Chinese Theatre, Roosevelt Hotel, Schwab's Pharmacy, Beverly Hills Hotel, Venice Beach, and Santa Monica Pier.
