That means that I haven't been able to work out what the initials on the gates might stand for...

The property websites give a build date of 1924...
More mysteries. Lloyd Lane and Iris circle don't appear on the 1921 Baist map. Both Lloyd Lane and the owners' home (before the 101 got it) were very near to the relocated house. The owners' house was built n 1916.

The subject properties were/are between Highland and Cahuenga:

No sign of Lloyd Lane or Iris Circle in 1921:

historicmapworks, 1921, plate 40

2015. Lloyd Lane is gone again:

google maps

The above doesn't explain what the "D" stands for either.
