Traffic around the exclusive Chateau Marmont, located at 8221 Sunset Blvd. (in what is now West Hollywood), had been tied up for several hours today when a house being moved up Marmont Lane was snagged by an immovable telephone pole. With difficulty movers "rocked" the house by the pole and traffic flowed again. Photo dated: February 15, 1950.
