Marilyn Monroe's Los Angeles Home Saved from Demolition, Historic Status Under Review

Marilyn Monroe purchased the Spanish-style home in Brentwood in 1962 after divorcing Arthur Miller.
The home was facing demolition in 2023 but the L.A. City Council voted to suspend the demolition permit.
The City Council wants to designate the home as a historic site due to its cultural significance.
Monroe lived in the home for only six months before she died there in August 1962 at age 36.
The Office of Historic Resources will evaluate whether to grant the 1929 home historic status and protection from demolition.
