4/25/1991	"Many Styles Converge at Hollywood's Crossroads of World"	Los Angeles Times	A description of the architecture of Crossroads of the World, a shopping center and office complex located at 6671 Sunset Boulevard. The piece describes the style of the complex's architect, Robert V. Derrah, as “California Optimism”: sunny, white buildings, influenced by Mediterranean architecture, and promising the Southern California dream. One such display of optimism is the eight-foot rotating globe on top of an openwork tower right in front of the shopping center. Protected by the National Register of Historic Places, the Disney Corporation bought the rights to use the site’s likeness at Disneyland.
