>The 'Brown' Derby Ain't What it Was

The Brown Derby did not go down without a fight. When the new owner
announced his plan to raze it, the L.A. Conservancy, then in its
infancy, organized its first major battle. Picket lines were thrown
up, lawsuits were filed, and it all ended in a pitiful compromise. The
developer would save the domed hat structure and stick on the rear of
his new minimall. It's really not the same building at all.

The Hollywood Brown Derby on Vine lasted a few years longer, and the
Beverly Hills location on Wilshire was the last to go.
