A journey to the devastation of Sunset Boulevard, L.A.’s iconic artery
The last six miles of the 23.6-mile long iconic boulevard have been consumed by one of the worst fires in the city’s history. We traveled down that stretch to survey the damage and talk to residents
Sunset is the beating heart of Los Angeles, the street that is photographed by tourists and desired by businesses. It extends along 23.6 miles (38 kilometers) and has 17,383 door numbers. There are palm trees everywhere, grandiose mansions and decadent apartments, pricey restaurants and simple hamburger joints, luxury stores and street markets; also to be found there is part of Beverly Hills and the University of California.
