Take a Drive Through 1950s Toluca Lake

From Bob Hope's home to the iconic Bob's Big Boy restaurant, Toluca Lake is home to a boatload of Southland history.

The Toluca Lake Chamber Commerce recently put together a video montage of a drive through the neighborhood--a follow-up to a much older drive-around-town clip shot in 1958.

Click here to watch the video on YouTube and see a Toluca from yesteryear (and yes, Bob's Big Boy is in it!)

Keep an eye out for other local landmark, like Paty's, which was known back then as Gaby's.
