George Reeves Benedict Canyon Home Today

This morning, I had an errand to do in Beverly Hills and I had to be there by 10:00.

Since the San Diego Freeway (I-405) is a parking lot in the morning, I took an alternate route from the San Fernando Valley to get there. I used to take this route when I worked at Wilshire Blvd. and La Cienega Blvd. years ago.

From Valley, I took Woodcliff Road to Mulholland Drive to Benedict Canyon Drive. Then down Benedict Canyon Drive into Beverly Hills.

While driving through Benedict Canyon, I pass by the house where Adventures of Superman star George Reeves lived and died.

On the way back to the Valley, I took several cell phone photos of the house.

Here's a couple of them:
