Iconic L.A.: Save the Peak -- Final

Times reporting this afternoon that Playboy founder, Hugh Hefner, has come to the rescue of the Hollywood sign "anteing up $900,000 to help in the effort to preserve the land surrounding the famed landmark," says the Times. This will be pooled with $500,000 in matching grants from the Tiffany Foundation and Aileen Getty.
