Hollywood Center Studios

Hollywood Center Studios

Hollywood Center Studios is a company based in Los Angeles, California which provides stage facilities to television and movie production companies. Its sound stages, located at 1040 N. Las Palmas Avenue in Hollywood, California, are steeped in Hollywood history. Many game shows were filmed there in the 1980s and 1990s, and most from the 1970s through today.

History

* The studios were originally constructed in 1919.
* In the 1920s Howard Hughes used the stages to shoot the silent "Hell's Angels".
* Monogram Studios took up residence before moving to where KCET is currently located.
* General Service Studios became the tenant in the 1930s.
* The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet filmed almost the entire run of its series here. For its final season it was forced to relocate to the Desilu-Culver lot. Filmways, already using virtually every other available stage, needed more space and Green Acres took over use of Stage 5.
* "I Love Lucy" was shot in Studio 2 prior to Desilu Productions' move to the former RKO Pictures lot (and the show was moved to the Ren-Mar Studios lot).
* Francis Ford Coppola purchased the lot for American Zoetrope in 1980, but following the bankrupting failure of "One from the Heart" in 1982, was forced to sell the lot in 1983.
