LOL, this part of town was not made for people like me who cannot tell right from left let alone E from SSE. And they remade it so we now have two Virgil/Sunset intersections. It was bad enough before:

1921 Baist Map historic mapworks

Why does Hollywood Blvd turn into Sunset Blvd and Sunset Blvd turn into Sunset Drive and Hillhurst turn into Virgil which then intersects with another Virgil?

A six-way intersection and half of them are Sunset? And the other three don't go through with their names intact?

You can't get there from here.

I don't blame Majestic-Reliance/Fine Arts/Gooden/Tiffany-Stahl/Tiffany/California Tiffany/Talisman/Columbia Studios for burning to the ground. It was probably spontaneous combustion.
