Шаблон:Third-party Шаблон:Infobox settlement The Hollywood Dell is a residential neighborhood located in the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles, California, in the lower eastern Santa Monica Mountains.

It is fully encompassed by zip code 90068.Шаблон:Citation needed

With its close proximity to the Hollywood Bowl, the Dell is a popular free parking area for concertgoers.Шаблон:Citation needed Concert parking is prohibited for such purposes, and a number of entries are guarded.Шаблон:Citation needed However, locals who know their way around can get into the neighborhood and contribute to a problematic overcrowded parking situation on concert nights.Шаблон:Citation needed
