Near Hollywood Boulevard

Ovation Hollywood (formerly Hollywood & Highland) - Located right in the heart of Hollywood, the bustling shopping complex has been credited for breathing new life into its surrounding areas. Built to the cost of approximately 615 million dollars, it opened its doors in 2001. The complex's courtyard was inspired by the D.W. Griffith film Intolerance, and its center boasts stunning views of the legendary Hollywood sign and the Hollywood Hills. Occupying nearly two whole blocks, Ovation Hollywood is comprised of 75 shops and restaurants, a movie theater, a nightclub, 65,000 square feet of gathering spaces, the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel, TV broadcast studios and last but not least, the Dolby Theatre.

Melrose Avenue is a hodgepodge of all that encompasses L.A. This diverse district manages to be eccentric and mainstream, affordable and upscale, and grungy and glamorous all at once. The one constant about this vibrant, lively block is that its shopping, dining and people-watching are second to none. At the edge of the Melrose Avenue shopping district you'll find Pink's Hot Dogs, the famous hot dog stand on the corner of Melrose and La Brea Avenues.

Sunset Plaza Mall - a collection of upscale stores and restaurants on the Sunset Strip. There is a parking lot in the back, off of Sunset Plaza Drive. Street parking is difficult to find and is subject to restrictions.
