I removed the line that said, "...nightclubs such as the Cotton Club lined Washington Boulevard," shortening it to omit mention of the Cotton Club. As it was, it implied that the Cotton Club was in Culver City, not Harlem.

That was not just an implication, it was an assertion. The Cotton Club had a West Coast branch. -Willmcw 20:34, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

the first picture looks stupid

Hmm. Can you make a better for us? -Willmcw 00:34, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Culver City: Santa Monica Freeway

This is totally unrelated to the first reply, but it has to do with Culver City. The article on Wikipedia says Culver City is served by the Marina Freeway, the 405, and the 10. The 10 doesn't actually go withing the Culver Citl Limits.

Your objection is technically true, but it's rather difficult to go south from the Robertson Boulevard exit on I-10 without driving through Culver City at least for a short distance before reentering the city of Los Angeles. Yes, one could avoid Culver City by going the back way around Cattaraugus, but most people don't bother (if they were going in that direction, they would have gotten off at La Cienega). So I-10 does serve Culver City even if it doesn't directly touch it. --Coolcaesar 05:32, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Likewise, LAX serves CC though outside the boundaries. -Willmcw 07:17, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hughes was never in Culver City

The Hughes Aircraft facilities and HQ were all in Westchester, not Culver City. What are now the Howard Hughes Center and Playa Vista are clearly within the Los Angeles city limits.--69.226.16.146 08:42, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Wasn't the Hughes Helicopter facility, just northeast of the intesection of Washington Blvd, and Lincoln Blvd., in Culver City? -Will Beback 20:56, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm finding numerouis references to Hughes' CC facilities. [1][2][3]. Of course some may be confused about geography, and just because a location is called "CC" doesmn't mean it's acutally within the city limits. -Will Beback 21:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
