The Movie Colony & El Mirador

The Movie Colony is a neighborhood of one hundred and seventy homes located right at the center of Palm Springs. It was built in the nineteen thirties and forties, giving the whole area a mid-century chic style that is so hard to find anywhere else in the country. If you have heard stories of celebrities living in Palm Springs, this is probably the neighborhood that was being discussed. Legends like Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Cary Grant, Tony Curtis, Estée Lauder, and Dinah Shore are just a few of the many notable names that have called this community home!

El Mirador is another small, centrally located neighborhood from the early nineteen hundreds that can be found in Palm Springs. The creation of this community was not marked by something typical like a new subdivision being created; it was instead signaled by the opening of the legendary El Mirador Hotel. This natural formation gives the area a uniquely eclectic feeling and creates a distinctive charm that has been drawing people in for the better part of a century.
