“until it was restored in the 1970s after a campaign which saw nine donors pay $US27,777 to “adopt” one letter each.”
Alice Cooper paid for an O in honor of his good friend, Groucho Marx.
I bet this is freaking him out.

Considering the filth that Hollywood now represents,
they should demolish the sign and the whole damn town.
Like everything good in America, it is now all “Gone With the Wind”.

great idea build homes on a hill then we can watch them slide down when it rains or burn when there’s a fire.

The sign itself is not threatened, despite the hysterics of some. The property that's up for sale is above and to the left of the sign.

It's basically a knife-edge ridge falling to steep slopes, so short of bulldozing the entire top, the buildable area isn't that great
