When Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles started getting too congested in 1930, Henry O’Melveny, a founder of one of the city’s most esteemed law firms, O’Melveny & Myers, picked up his English Tudor style mansion and moved it to South Plymouth Boulevard, where it remains in one of the nation’s toniest neighborhoods.
Although it has changed hands over the years—the house was most recently owned by actor and producer David Arquette—it has become known in Los Angeles’ excessive real estate world as the O’Melveny House.
