1950s TV/Pop Culture: Guided Tour of Hollywood (Circa Early 1950s, from "You Asked for It")

Two streetcars are seen running down Hollywood Boulevard toward the end of the clip, meaning this was filmed prior to February 1954.

Almost all the buildings show still exist, except they are something else now. Except for the Hollywood Brown Derby, which was damaged heavily in the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and was torn down a few years later.

I've always thought of Hollywood as one of the most luxurious cities in America, if not in the whole world.
