Is this page really all necessary? Who's going to write about the street? It's mostly residential. -Branddobbe

It's one of the most famous streets in Los Angeles, as it goes through the Hollywood Hills near many celebrities' mansions and past the Hollywood sign, and it's been featured in a few pop culture moments, so it's not a VFD candidate. --Howcheng 16:08, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Agreed, it's also a fairly important street in its own right (best described as a minor arterial road). CrazyC83 04:40, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

I believe it might be helpful to add information about other things the road is famous for, such as racing (e.g. James Dean honed his skills there, as many have).--70.186.192.13 04:30, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cost to Construct and Maintain

How much did it first cost to build Mulholland Drive?

How much goes into its maintenance?

If it is now completely paved, what year was it first completely paved?

[edit] Mulholland Highway

There's a page on Mulholland Highway, which is a different entity from Mulholland Drive, as Mulholland Dr. is mostly residential and the routing is different (it starts in Calabasas and ends in Hollywood; Mulholland Hwy starts south of Woodland Hills and ends near the LA/Ventura County line. Shouldn't the Mulholland Hwy section of this page be transferred to the Mulholland Hwy page? Floydspinky71 21:20, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I suppose. There are often thought of as different parts of the same road, but for encyclopedic purposes we should probably treat them separately. -Will Beback 23:46, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mulholland Raceway

What's the sales pitch on the Mulholland Raceway got to do with an encyclopedia? Asjoseph, please state facts, add images and so on, but always stick to the appropriate style. - --60.242.19.209 11:57, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
