Thank you again for keeping the questions coming. If you want to stuff questions into next week's holiday Rumblings' stocking, please email us questions at la@curbed.com. And here are the answers to Tuesday's questions...
MULHOLLAND DRIVE: In regards to that large "D" (pictured) mounted on a hill below the water tower near Mulholland Drive, the giant letter is on the property/home of Richard Kraft, a Hollywood agent who collects Disney memorabilia and who produced the 2006 documentary "Kraftland". Yes, that's Disney typeface. Via Flickr user EliCube.
BEVERLY HILLS: In regards to the empty lot on the southwest corner of Olympic and Robertson in Beverly Hills? Said commenter JRB: "It was a gas station. Mobil may still own it, at the very least big $$ would be required to clean it up before building anything there. Old gas stations tend to just sit fenced off for a looooong time. See also the NE corner of Olympic and La Cienega, NE corner of Robertson and Burton Way, etc." Yes, gas station is always the go-to answer on these empty lot questions.
