  History:
  Oil magnate Edward Lawrence Doheny gave his son Ned a piece of land where Greystone Manor was built, costing more than three million dollars.
  The creation of the park began in 1926. Several designers worked on the project, drawing on the styles of Italian and English gardens. They used more than 100 varieties of flowers, trees, and other plants, and erected two of the most beautiful cascading waterfalls. The picture was completed by the lakes with pure clear water. A swimming pool and tennis court were ordered for entertainment. At the end of September 1928, the estate was ready and the family moved in. It didn't take long for Ned to enjoy his estate. Four months later he was found hanged in his own house, after which his wife sold the estate to millionaire Henry Crown.
  He is now very famous around the world and owns the Empire State Building. Crone never lived in the estate, he rented it out for filming movies. After a while he decided to sell Greystone, but the Beverly Hills government bought it outright. The land is now used for cultural and educational events, for filming movies, commercials and various TV shows, for weddings and more.
