Beverly Hills
The Flats, moments from Rodeo Drive, and the Post Office hills above them.
Living in Beverly Hills
The Rodeo Land and Water Company subdivided Beverly Hills in 1906 to a plan by landscape architect Wilbur Cook and architect Myron Hunt: a gently curving grid of streets lined with palms and deciduous trees, smaller parcels to the south and larger lots on steeper ground to the north. The city incorporated in 1914. In the Flats, below Sunset, Rodeo Drive’s shops meet Beverly Gardens Park on Santa Monica Boulevard, and the Beverly Hills Hotel has stood on Sunset since 1912.
Above Sunset the streets climb. Greystone, the mansion Edward L. Doheny finished in 1928, now belongs to the city, and on the former Doheny Ranch beyond it Paul Trousdale developed Trousdale Estates through the 1950s and early 1960s, with early houses by Paul R. Williams and Wallace Neff. A city ordinance adopted there in 1987 protects views.
Past the city line, the Post Office hills keep the 90210 ZIP code but belong to the City of Los Angeles, which named much of this ground Beverly Crest in 2008. Coldwater and Benedict canyons wind up toward Mulholland Drive, and Franklin Canyon Park, part of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, circles a reservoir with hiking trails.
