Two Stone Gates, also known as Hollywoodland Stone Gates, are historic stone gates located at the intersection of Beachwood Drive, Belden Drive, and Westshire Drive in Hollywood, California. The gates form the entrance to the neighborhood of Hollywoodland, part of Beachwood Canyon, and they were declared Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument No. 20 in 1963.

History

Both gates that comprise Two Stone Gates were built by European stonemasons in 1923.[1][2] The architects are unknown.[3]

The building was declared Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument No. 20 on November 23, 1963.[4]

Architecture and design

The gates are designed in the French Norman style[5] and form the entrance to the neighborhood of Hollywoodland in Beachwood Canyon.[1][6]

The two stone structures at the entrance to the Hollywood Tower Hotel grounds in Disney's Hollywood Studios were inspired by the Two Stone Gates.[5]
