Vine Street

Vine Street is a street in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California that runs north-south from Melrose Avenue up past Hollywood Boulevard. The intersection of Hollywood and Vine was once a symbol of Hollywood itself. The famed intersection fell into disrepair during the 1970s but has since begun gentrification and renewal with several high valued projects currently in progress. Three blocks of the Hollywood Walk of Fame lie along this street with names such as John Lennon, Johnny Carson, and Deborah Kerr. South of Melrose, Vine turns into Rossmore Avenue, a residential Hancock Park thoroughfare that ends at Wilshire Boulevard.

Buildings

The California Laundry was located on the street in 1920s. The Capitol Records Building, Capitol Tower, is located just north of the intersection of Hollywood & Vine.Miss Brewster's Millions (1926) starring Bebe Daniels, was shot on Vine Street at Franklin Avenue, near the site what is now the Capitol Records Building. The Hollywood/Vine Station for the Metro Red Line serves the intersection with the station entrance located at Hollywood Boulevard and Argyle Avenue, located one block east. Metro Local line 210 serves Vine Street.

Vine Street (Philadelphia)

Vine Street is a major east-west street in Center City, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It begins at the Delaware River, and proceeds west until 20th Street, where it merges with the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. In West Philadelphia, it begins again near the intersection of 52nd Street & Haverford Avenue, and ends just past 66th Street, in Cobbs Creek Park. Vine Street is non-continuous between 5th and 7th Streets, because of the Vine Street Expressway and the approach to the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.

It was part of Philadelphia's original street plan, laid out by William Penn and Thomas Holme in 1682, and remained the northern border of the City of Philadelphia until 1854.

It forms the northern border of Franklin Square and Logan Circle. The main branch of the Free Library of Philadelphia and the (now-vacant) Family Court Building both have their main entrances on Vine Street.

Vine Street (soap opera)

Vine Street, considered the first American TV soap opera, was first broadcast on 15 April 1938 by W6XAO as a daily 15-minute serial and was listed as a comedy/drama. The storyline involved Hollywood life on the lowest rungs of the ‘ladder’ to success. The light humor drama shows the struggles to make it big in Tinsel Town. The stars were John Barkeley and Shirley Thomas, two Broadway and radio character actors, neither of whom appeared on TV again. The writers, Maurice Ashley and Wilfred Pettit, were brought in from the radio networks to experiment in this new medium.

Firsts

While Germany, England and the United States were all attempting to produce television programing in 1935, America did not create any type of regularly scheduled programing until 1939 and offered the public such pioneers as the children’s show, Kukla, Fran and Ollie, Betty White and programs featuring Eddie Albert, who became one of the first TV actors in 1935. Vine Street apparently lasted for less than a year. The birthplace of TV was in Schenectady, New York; however, as fast as it was maturing in New York, it was also becoming a powerhouse in California.

Vine Street, London

Vine Street is a street in Westminster, London, running from Swallow Street, parallel to Regent Street and Piccadilly. It is now a dead end that was shortened from a longer road in the early 18th century owing to the building of Regent Street.

From the 18th to 20th century, it was home to Vine Street Police Station, originally a watch-house, but later one of the busiest police stations in the world, where the Marquess of Queensberry was charged with libel against Oscar Wilde. There was also a court house in the 18th and early 19th century. The street's association with law has led to it being grouped with Bow Street and Marlborough Street on the standard British Monopoly board.

Geography

The street is a dead end approximately 70 feet (21 m) long, running east and parallel to Piccadilly near Piccadilly Circus. It consists mainly of the rear facades of buildings facing onto other streets. It connects to Swallow Street at its western end and an alleyway, Piccadilly Place halfway along. At the eastern end, the Man in the Moon Passage provides foot access to Regent Street. The nearest tube station is Piccadilly Circus.

Ohio State Route 91

State Route 91 (SR 91) is a north–south state highway in the northeastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its southern terminus is at U.S. Route 224 (East Waterloo Road) in Springfield Township, east of Akron. Its northern terminus is at State Route 283 (Lake Shore Boulevard) on the Timberlake/Eastlake border less than one mile (1.6 km) south of Lake Erie.

The route is known as "Canton Road" from its southern terminus to just north of its interchange with Interstate 76 (Canton Road continues south as County Route 66, a former portion of State Route 8). North of this interchange, it is called "Darrow Road" until it enters the city of Tallmadge, where it is named "South Avenue" south of the Tallmadge Circle, and "North Avenue" north of the circle. It next passes through the Munroe Falls village limits and is known as "South Main Street" and "North Main Street." It becomes "Darrow Road" once again in the city of Stow and for its remaining length in Summit County, aside from within the Hudson city limits, where it is "South" and "North Main Street."

Vine Street (Murray, Utah)

Vine Street is a street that runs the full length of Murray, Utah from east to west, from a point near the Jordan River to an intersection with the Van Winkle Expressway (State Route 152) and 6100 South (connecting immediately to Highland Drive) on the border with Holladay. For most of its length, it follows Little Cottonwood Creek. A large portion of the current extent of Vine Street was used as part of the route for transporting quartz monzonite quarried near the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon to Temple Square during construction of the Salt Lake Temple, until the construction of railroads provided an easier route, and a large portion was also designated Utah State Route 173 from 1935 to 1947 (the modern Utah State Route 173 is nearby, but does not connect to Vine Street).

Route description

Vine Street starts in a suburban residential area near the Jordan River and passes a one-building campus of Stevens-Henager College before crossing over Interstate 15 (with no on- or off-ramps) and entering an industrial area. Despite the current industrial uses in the area, the historic Murray LDS Second Ward Meetinghouse is preserved just off of Vine Street near Commerce Drive (300 West). Vine Street Crosses the Union Pacific, UTA's FrontRunner, and UTA's TRAX (Blue and Red) rail lines at grade along the north side of Murray Central Station before intersecting Cottonwood Street at a three-way intersection from which Vine Street proceeds north-northeast; though the intersection is three way for automobiles, a multi-use trail continues east on the south side of Little Cottonwood Creek to State Street (US Route 89) and Murray Park.
