August - September-ish! Let’s hope we can pick some Star Fruit together this Fall and celebrate the tree and buildings being saved. There was a Rockford Files episode with a scene at the Hollywood Center on TV recently, a classic location in film and television history!

..sad to see the hollywood center motel go. that was ALWAYS a landmark, whether documented or not. my 'hollywood' (or at least when i lived there) is getting bulldozed..

Let's not count this cool spot out just yet. A demo notice is not a permit, and if people who care speak out, places they love can be saved!

There’s also a huge Star Fruit tree just behind the HOLLYWOOD letters on the cement blocks. It feeds people when the fruit hangs over the fence. I think I can see it’s still there from your video. That should be saved too! Fingers crossed.

Oh cool--that could be quite an old tree, too. When does it fruit?
