So true Adam we would go there after seeing opening movies at the El Cap. So sad I loved your evening walks and you sharing what was occurring live from the streets from memory
@@TheDailyWooHey Adam, there's a TH-cam page called The Troll Patrol and they're saying negative things about you and your friend Daphne. I put in some good words for you guys on a few of their stupid videos. They also trolled the GIV. This troll Patrol page is a bitter scum bag who has nothing better to do than troll people who actually enjoy their lives. Much love, friend!
There were a few wild things going on in the 60s on Sunset Boulevard Hollywood Blvd didn't have a reputation for being weird back then It was clean, & respectable .
I grew up there in 70s and 80s, it was clean and beautiful to an extent, but dangerous and "ugly" too. I remember the selling of drugs, cocaine, pimps and prostitutes there especially on Sunset Blvd and Santa Monica Blvd, various "adult book stores" and the Pussycat x movie theaters. Hedonistic. People were friendlier back then and rent was really cheap. Not anymore.
Got family from there that used to live there and it is truly rapidly over the last several years going down hill and kinda scary now. Nothing magical about it anymore. Sad to see it go down.

I miss Hollywood. The way it use to be. Even though there is so much of it that is abandoned, it still has this eerie haunting presence of it’s glitzy and glamours past.
In about 1923, my mother and her parents visited relatives in California for a month or so. Mother shot snapshots of the stars of the movies on location in the LA area. In those days, film companies drove around till they found a likely location, unloaded camera, director, and actors, and shot a 30-minute feature. Anybody wandering by could snap all the shots they wanted. Unhappily, mother destroyed all her photos when she was about 95.
Wish it was possible to go back in time and visit Hollywood in its prime, just to see how the buildings looked like and visit those old school theatres.
The Capitol Records building Hollywood Bowl Griffith Park & The Hollywood sign El Capitan Grauman,,"s Chinese & Pantages Theaters are state historic landmarks.
I accidentally took a CD once, (I thought it was just a flyer), when I told the guy I didn’t want it and tried giving it back, he refused to take it, got in my face and wanted to fight while demanding his money, yeah, good times
@@BudFuddlackerthat’s crazy yet I’m not surprised because my kids and I were literally attacked by a Spider-Man character when we visited over a year ago, he wanted a bigger tip, we didn’t even ask him to be in our photos but I still have him a few dollars and he started yelling that wasn’t enough money! I wish there was a cop around cause I wld have reported him!
Live relatively nearby. Stopped visiting Hollywood Boulevard several years ago due to rising crimes. It used to be considered a magical place, but no longer. Sad!
It was fun when I frequented it in the early 2000s performing at the Magic Castle as a magician’s assistant, or auditioning for theater roles there and in the surrounding areas. When I came back in the 2010s, it was tolerable but not as good. When I last visited in 2019 I saw the signs of decay…really bad.
I have a friend who used to work at the payless shoe source on the corner of Hollywood and Wilcox, right across from the old Pacific theater and round the corner from the "you are the star" mural - it's a damn shame what happened to that mural, I remember when it was beautiful, it was vibrant the colors were vivid, now it's faded and defaced by people who don't care about the great history of Hollywood. I remember we used to eat at a place just down the street called Star Burgers, they used to have great burgers there.
When I was there last year around this time, it was full of homeless people. It's a bit bizarre to have those food delivery robots driving around right in front of their noses... The last time before that when I visited the Boulevard (back in 2014) it all felt way more magical and cliché, compared to what it turned into these last 10 years. Such a shame how it feels like a ghost town.
Hollywood Blvd has long had a checkered history. I recall it from years ago, way before Adam was living near there. The bldg next to where the Jimmy Kimmel show is done (& has a sign on its roof promoting the Haunting in Venice movie) was long abandoned. The Dolby Theater complex where Adam is filming from above the street was a parking lot until around 2000. Around the same time, the bldg where the Tussand museum is located next to Grauman's was a parking lot. A lot of properties around the Pantages Theater were an assortment of parking lots & small bldgs occupied by stores like Pep Boys auto parts. The nearby old Broadway Hollywood bldg was vacant for years (it's now apts), & the W Hotel across the street didn't exist until 2008.
I myself remember Hollywood in the early 2000s, when I performed at the Magic Castle as an assistant to my illusionist/escape artist stage magician boss and mentor. I also auditioned at many of the tv and film studios as well as theaters around the area. From ‘05 to ‘10 I lived elsewhere, came back to Los Angeles by 2011 or so. Things in Hollywood had changed but weren’t as bad compared to when I finally moved out of California permanently in 2018.
I used to go to the Hollywood and Highland area and walk around there and where the Egyptian theater is. That was from about 2004 until 2014. But it started getting unsafe, imo. There were too many crazy people around and frequent shootings. I stopped going. But I had some great times before. I was surprised by how many of the stores are closed. But when I think about it, if I don't feel safe probably others don't either. Thanks for going out there. It was fun visiting from afar.
I moved to Hollywood in 2012 and lived there until 2021, the first few years from 2012 to 2016 were amazing, had the time of my life, people have always been different out there but then after 2016 something drastically changed, the culture got very bizarre and then especially after "covid" and all this other non sense came along it became unlivable and unbearable for normal people with common sense so I bolted in April 2021 for good. Every time I see a video like this of Hollywood/Los Angeles it makes me a little sad, because I miss those earlier days I lived out there. I have a lifetime of memories and a ton of interesting stories to share from living in Hollywood though.
Great video thanks for sharing this one I lived in Hollywood from 1966 through 1980. My dad worked at Musso and frank grill. I lived on a little street between Carlos and Yucca Avenue on a little street called Vista Del Mar one block north of Hollywood Boulevard one block west of Gower.
Fantastic job. And remember ' no pants, no shoes, no shirt, no service. Remember it and remember to live in a special pup tent that includes shoes, shirts and pants 👖😄 👍
Adam Thank You for all the traveling that you do. Great stream very informative. I was in Hollywood back in the late 1970's early 1980's. It was Great back then. WOW how it has changed.
Adam, to be fair Hollywood has been a S-hole city for many years. I should know, I’m born and raised here in Southern California, about 20 miles west of Hollywood. Unfortunately ton of history is being erased in that town. The city has really been on an even faster downward spiral over the last 3 1/2 years though. A city with no rules. A prime example was those guys on the dirt bikes popping wheelies along Hollywood Blvd. And Cahuenga, is pronounced Kowanga or Kawengha. Lol. The ‘h’ is silent.
What caused the city to tear down so fast? When I visited LA in 2014 it all felt way nicer. I came back last year and ended up in misery. Homeless people everywhere, about half of all stores were emptied up, all activities at night (like bars and such) felt very isolated... Being from Europe, I'm actually really afraid to go back. My visit last year kind of ruined the image of 'Hollywood' in my mind. Hopefully things will crawl back up in the future.
Happy to know you’ve filmed more of the Chaplin Keaton Lloyd Alley! I’m always learning new things with anyone’s Hollywood videos but that was my favorite part!
Lol…. Kress?? That was the home of the original Fredrick’s of Hollywood! Hollywood Magic was right next to it when I worked there and lived a few blocks up Whitley. Before that I lived up Cherokee on Franklin. Yeah, I spend several decades there as it was near The Magic Castle where I went regularly. Loved this look back at SOO many years of my old stomping grounds starting around ‘77 on. Thanks for the great memories :-)
Kress was the name of the department store the building was originally built for. After Fredericks left (having been there since the 60's) developers sunk a fortune into restoring it and went back to using the Kress name to start a multi story nightclub that didn't last too long and still sits empty to this day.
Really good one Adam. Born and raised on these streets so I certainly appreciated the real look at the old 'hood. I'm circa 1970's so quite a bit different then, but same vibe of craziness.
Hi Adam, I first visited the US in 1990. I remember thinking "I can't wait to see Hollywood". I'd grown up watching movies with my mum and never thought I would see the US let alone Hollywood. Well, your video title says it all. I realised the "Hollywood" I thought of was the Beautiful places in the Hills. I still think Hollywood Boulevard has it's own charm and history. Graumanns theartre with the famous hand and footprints was something I'd always wanted to see. I still have a photo of me placing my hands in Marilyn Monroes prints!
Aww man I lived right by you on Beachwood Dr in 06 to 2014 and used to work at Bally's Gym for years right across street from you too. Hollywood is crazy now 🤯. Have a nice trip 💕🤙
Sorry, but I don't. I grew up around there in the '60s-'70s. Back then there was no crime, homeless or the smell of urine. When it really was like "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood".
thank you very much! Your explanations and the itineraries really helped me plan the trip to the USA, I really like your Volgs, and the bookstore, there aren't as many stores as there used to be.❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
California just had a birthday 173--years old on September 9. I have a lot of good memories of Hollywood like as a kid my dad would drive down sunset bl. my brothers and I would watch for the Rocky & Bullwinkle studio and outside of the studio stood a Rocky & Bullwinkle statue with a spotlight on them and that made our night. Thank you, it was nice to hear your memories of Los Angeles🌴🌴🌴Did Lucy & Ethel ever return John Wayne footprints to the Grauman's Chinese Theater? ha ha. 🌴🌴🌴
Loved the tour! I was just there on the boulevard and the Chinese theater and that same $5 souvenir shop! Long way from Boston, but it was great! It was the end of June and I just missed you by a day as I saw your video from here back then. Nice video, Adam!
That does bring back memories, I used to watch all of your vlogs from there so I remember much of what you showed us tonight especially Argyle the pig. It's nice to see where you lived there because if I remember right that was never shown while you lived there. At the time I created a Hollywood star with the name Adamthewoo on it but I couldn't ever find a way to send it to you, apparently you had all avenues for incoming pictures blocked. The scenes around the Chinese Theater took me back even further in my memories to 1978 when my sister and I spent a week there on vacation. It's sad to see now because we lost her to Covid in January 2021.
I lived for 8 months in a home Marlon Brando owned when he was a younger actor. David Carradine also, after Marlon moved. During my time there, I would go to Hollywood and Highland and park on the lowest level. Thank for the revisit!
I lived on Sycamore off Hollywood Blvd 1969 to 1971 .It was spooky even back then and I loved every minute of it.I still am drawn to it when I visit.Thanks for bringing me back there.
Every once in a while I liked to make the trek down to see a movie at the Cinerama Dome. It was just a different vibe. The last movie I think I saw there was The Doors in ‘91 🎹🎸🥁
HEY ATW...IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY WHEN YOU WERE living there. I remember you walking around at night and filming the night life and Hollywood Blvd was busier at night than during the day! There was a old bearded man whom spoke with you for an extended period and he was actually so weird it was hilarious! You certainly have lived an adventurous life. I can't believe you are even thinking of slowing down!?!! You just lost a chunk of weight, nothing holding you down, good health, good to GO! Its not just a job...its an adventure!
I remember walking from Wallich's Music City on Sunset & Vine up to Hollywood Blvd then over to Highland to the Hollywood Bowl to see the Beatles. Innocent time!
Thank you Adam for another great Video. I want Jordan the lion also. I have not been to Hollywood to visit sense the early 80’s. It quote a mess now sad
As I have said a time or two, can't stay away from So Cal. We gotcha ! Ahh memories. No longer the golden state , a bit rusty ! Looking slim and trim. Be safe.😎
Thanks for the mention of Jordan The Lion. I found out about Jordan from you and have spent the last few years watching both of you in current and past videos.
Awesome tour! The Cinerama Dome opened November 1963 with “Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” It is supposed to reopen in 2024 under a new name i believe the L.A Times said
Yeah that jack in the box was always.. yeah lol I went to La Film School back in the day and would go there sometimes for lunch and once in a while at night. It was a trip that’s for sure
I spent two weeks last summer living just down North Gower Street around the corner at Fountain, south from the Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles. Gower St. has gotten kind of rough with several tent cities spanning for a block or two. So many productions have been shot at Gower Studios, and right outside is sketchy. There were a few gunshots at night, some people definitely off their meds. I had no idea your old apartment was just minutes away by foot!
Saw Terminator 2 there at the Dome in 92. Saw Hello, Dolly there in 69. Great sound! Miss the older buses from the RTD and especially the old 5 star "Hollywood Special" streetlights.
I would think Hollywood an tourist area would be losing money .i I think with the money people paying to see all of Hollywood they would get clean an better accommodation an better hospitality .. i think its going to take more than hand sanitizer .clean up Hollywood ❤
I still love Hollywood although it is the trenches now. I was there just yesterday up and down sunset and the blvd. The familiarity of the neighborhood keeps me going back EDIT: Learned some new stuff here as well, like alley Keaton alley by 1640 and TSG. Great vid.
You and Jordan are my Hollywood California historians. Im thankful for your videos Adam. Hollywood Blvd is kinda fascinating but the history is very Cool 😎. It must be expensive too have an apartment off Hollywood Blvd n Vine. Take care ❤
One of the first times I ever watched your channel was when you did the livestream walking up and down Hollywood Blvd one night. It was a lot of weirdness. Fun to watch, but weird. Lol.
Adam dang things happen quick around that stretch of Hollywood Blvd. as you and Scott on Tape just recently sat outside at that coffee bean!
That coffee bean is the place of legends. Not even kidding
So true Adam we would go there after seeing opening movies at the El Cap. So sad I loved your evening walks and you sharing what was occurring live from the streets from memory
I was thinking the same thing when Adam showed how it was blocked off.😕

Demoralization
@goalie2998 You ain't kidding....America has reached peak individualism-every man for himself.
Sad to see how neglected such an iconic part of history of USA looks. Needs some care and attention. ❤
Imagine what Hollywood must've looked like during the two golden ages, the 20's and the 60's. Great video as always Adam
There were a few wild things going on in the 60s on Sunset Boulevard
Hollywood Blvd didn't have a reputation for being weird back then
It was clean, & respectable .
I was on the Blvd in the late 70s. It was clean and beautiful.
Sorry, now it's a dump
Sad they have let such a historic place fall into such dispare
Me too. SO different now.
I grew up there in 70s and 80s, it was clean and beautiful to an extent, but dangerous and "ugly" too. I remember the selling of drugs, cocaine, pimps and prostitutes there especially on Sunset Blvd and Santa Monica Blvd, various "adult book stores" and the Pussycat x movie theaters. Hedonistic.

Not anymore.
@@wanderwoo9468it’s not people from the South ruining California. it’s your Democratic politicians that you continue to vote back in office.

folks with revisionist history..parts of it was shady and dangerous..omg
Brings back so many memories. Looks so gray and dull, even with sun out. I left California in 2017.. shocking how it's deteriorated...

I'm so bummed that they vandalized that mural! It is one of my favorite things to see when I go to Hollywood.
me too, how sad.
I hear you there.
I was there when they painted that mural. late 1970's.
Here’s a tip when you’re on the walk of fame do not take anything from anyone. If they try to hand you a CD say no thanks and keep walking
I accidentally took a CD once, (I thought it was just a flyer), when I told the guy I didn’t want it and tried giving it back, he refused to take it, got in my face and wanted to fight while demanding his money, yeah, good times

Those "guys" taking over the Boulevard are what's ruining LA...
Liberals are what’s ruining LA.
RUIN IT! RUIN IT! RUIN IT!
That's what happens when you vote in left-wing morons like Newsom who want to destroy the state with violence and homelessness.
Guys?
@@chrispanico2276 Yes, "guys". I was quoting Adam.

In 1982, I lived on Cherokee, in what at the time was only one building away from the Hollywood Boulevard. It was the height of the metal years.
About 20 years ago, we lived on Cherokee. Only for 3 weeks but those were 3 fun weeks. Great to see those streets again.

It's sad to see now because we lost her to Covid in January 2021.

Every once in a while I liked to make the trek down to see a movie at the Cinerama Dome. It was just a different vibe. The last movie I think I saw there was The Doors in ‘91 🎹🎸🥁
HEY ATW...IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY WHEN YOU WERE living there. I remember you walking around at night and filming the night life and Hollywood Blvd was busier at night than during the day! There was a old bearded man whom spoke with you for an extended period and he was actually so weird it was hilarious! You certainly have lived an adventurous life. I can't believe you are even thinking of slowing down!?!! You just lost a chunk of weight, nothing holding you down, good health, good to GO! Its not just a job...its an adventure!
enjoying the memories. I used to work on sunset and highland and would walk down to hollywood blvd
To live and die in LA ❤ you are my favorite TH-camr… next to the GIV of course ! 😄
I remember walking from Wallich's Music City on Sunset & Vine up to Hollywood Blvd then over to Highland to the Hollywood Bowl to see the Beatles. Innocent time!
Adam you're living the dream!
Thank you Adam for another great Video. I want Jordan the lion also. I have not been to Hollywood to visit sense the early 80’s. It quote a mess now sad
Looking a bit slim Mr. Woo. Awesome 👍🏻
The Kinks Seloid Heros ! We you take a walk down Hollywood Blvd . ! Nice Great Work !
Thanks Adam. I remember the live vlog you did from the Hollywood Blvd.
Theres some really awesome buildings there. Wish they would find someway to restore them. Make a museum or something.
Nice video Adam.
I like when you make videos like this. Hope to see more soon.
As I have said a time or two, can't stay away from So Cal. We gotcha ! Ahh memories. No longer the golden state , a bit rusty ! Looking slim and trim. Be safe.😎

Hey Adam good vlog and thank you and keep up the good you do love jarl ❤❤
Man I miss Hollywood - thanks for sharing Adam! 🙏🏻
It went woke... good riddance
Thanks for the mention of Jordan The Lion. I found out about Jordan from you and have spent the last few years watching both of you in current and past videos.
Ahh the good Ole sesspool of Hollywood BLVD. 😊 I'm glad ya enjoyed. And glad I can vicariously through you instead of being there. Thanks again
Awesome tour! The Cinerama Dome opened November 1963 with “Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” It is supposed to reopen in 2024 under a new name i believe the L.A Times said
That's what I read too.
Yeah that jack in the box was always.. yeah lol I went to La Film School back in the day and would go there sometimes for lunch and once in a while at night. It was a trip that’s for sure
I spent two weeks last summer living just down North Gower Street around the corner at Fountain, south from the Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles. Gower St. has gotten kind of rough with several tent cities spanning for a block or two. So many productions have been shot at Gower Studios, and right outside is sketchy. There were a few gunshots at night, some people definitely off their meds. I had no idea your old apartment was just minutes away by foot!
Saw Terminator 2 there at the Dome in 92.
Saw Hello, Dolly there in 69.
Great sound!
Miss the older buses from the RTD and
especially the old 5 star "Hollywood Special" streetlights.
Great video! Love the California videos!!
Merrily, Merrily, merrily, merrily... life is but a dream!
Jim Carey… ‘merrily merrily merrily merrily…’ Life is but a dream.
He’s always been a dreamer…
Incredible video
I would think Hollywood an tourist area would be losing money .i I think with the money people paying to see all of Hollywood they would get clean an better accommodation an better hospitality .. i think its going to take more than hand sanitizer .clean up Hollywood ❤
I still love Hollywood although it is the trenches now. I was there just yesterday up and down sunset and the blvd. The familiarity of the neighborhood keeps me going back
EDIT: Learned some new stuff here as well, like alley Keaton alley by 1640 and TSG. Great vid.
Merrily merrily merrily, life is but a dream.
You and Jordan are my Hollywood California historians. Im thankful for your videos Adam. Hollywood Blvd is kinda fascinating but the history is very Cool 😎. It must be expensive too have an apartment off Hollywood Blvd n Vine. Take care ❤
So cool ⭐️
The hand prints and
footprints look so small. Adam, I love your vlogs, so neat, interesting and informative.
One of the first times I ever watched your channel was when you did the livestream walking up and down Hollywood Blvd one night. It was a lot of weirdness. Fun to watch, but weird. Lol.
