The identification of the section with Beverly Hills did not begin until the 1960s. "When Beverly Hills was incorporated in 1914, the northern border was roughly a mile north of Sunset Boulevard, with the exception of Trousdale Estates. The remaining section stretching north to Mulholland Drive was left as part of the hills of Los Angeles, where it remained anonymous for decades." In 1963 the area was included within the 90210 ZIP Code, which also covers the northern part of Beverly Hills.[1]
The post office itself is the work of architects Allison & Allison and Ralph Frewelling, 1932-1933.
