Yamashiro and the Magic Castle For Sale |
|
Friday, 08 February 2008 |
|
Yamashiro and the Magic Castle, Hollywood institutions for decades, are for sale by the descendants of Thomas O. Glover. The family-owned 10-acre plot of land on a hill behind Grauman's Chinese theater has been attracting the attention of developers for years and the family has lately been entertaining offers. A stipulation of the land sale is that Yamashiro and the Magic Castle must continue to operate undisturbed, but that hasn't stopped Hollywood Heritage from pursuing a Historic-Cultural Resource designation for Yamashiro. |
