Stars are Gone!

61 stars are removed from Hollywood’s Walk of Fame to make way for the $500-million hotel-shopping-housing project being built on Vine Street near Hollywood Boulevard.

Frank Sinatra’s star is among the stars that were removed & placed in a secure warehouse, where they’ll remain until the project is completed in 2009.

Some fans are angry saying this was done for a private developer and not for the public’s interest, like when the stars were removed back in the ’90s for the Metro Red Line (subway) construction.
