The Bird Streets residential area is in the immediate vicinity .
history
The area that is now Trousdale Estates was once the farmland of Doheny Ranch, whose main house, the Greystone Mansion, is still the largest residential building in Beverly Hills. It is located in what is now Greystone Park, which is immediately southwest of Trousdale Estates.
The entire country once belonged to Edward L. Doheny Junior (1893–1929), the son of oil magnate Edward L. Doheny (1856–1935). His widow Lucy Smith Doheny Battson (1893–1993) sold the site in 1954 to the developer Paul Trousdale, who developed today's "Estates" as an exclusive residential area. A year later, she also sold the Greystone Mansion.
