MessageI've had friends that have lived on Hollywood and Wilcox for the last 15
years. The area has changed so drastically in that time it's hardly the same
place. The first thing is parking. It's a nightmare.
The rent for apartments have increased nearly 300 percent in that time. And
this is for crappy apartments.
They Disneyfied Times Square they'll do it to Hollywood and Vine.

This is sad. You'd think the restoration group responsible for revitalizing
Hollywood and Vine would have considered leasing some of the property to
dealers in vintage Hollywood memorabilia so as to preserve some of Hollywood's
past. I have no problem getting rid of some of cheap wig stores and the crappy
souvenir stores that line the avenue but Hollywood Blvd. will lose its
character if it simply hosts Nike shops and Banana Republics. It will begin to
look like Times Square in New York. FRANC

Sabin probably closed the store because the City of LA decided to close all
the mom and pop stores on Hollywood & Vine to make room for the W Hotel and all
the shops that will cater to their customers.

I noticed the Sabin Gray's Backlot Books down the street seems to have
closed as well.
I stopped by today and it looked as though they were in the process of
cleaning it out. I know there was a fire on the block not long ago. I don't
know if the two were related.
