Read about the History of the Studio.
In April 2012 the current owners of The Lot ('CIM') began demolition of some of the historic buildings used by Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and countless movie stars, writers, directors and technicians.
The first to go was the Pickford Building, on 3rd April 2012.
