Doheny Drive is a major north/south thoroughfare for Beverly Hills and
West Hollywood. It starts a few blocks south of Pico Boulevard and travels north past Sunset Boulevard. Doheny
encounters few traffic lights, making it a relatively quick trip north/south. From Santa
Monica Boulevard to Sunset Boulevard are condominiums, adjacent
to the Sunset Strip. Doheny Drive forms the western end of the Strip, which ends at
Crescent Heights Boulevard to the east.
It is named for Edward L. Doheny, a Los Angeles oil tycoon.
