Description: ANSWER: The excellently landscaped establishment in the photo is the Eastern Star Home at 11725 Sunset Blvd. in Brentwood. Didn't you notice the star atop the entrance tower? The home, the only one of its kind in California, was built in 1933.
KNOW YOUR CITY, NO. 229 -- Here's one that will stump you. This lovely place is on a prominent boulevard and it is home to 59 ladies, all of whom, as you might suspect, belong to the same organization. Take a guess. See Page 26, Part ll.
