Great news: The Fires by the Getty Center are 100% contained!

A fast moving fire started on Friday around 3:30pm east of the Getty Center but very near. Rush hour traffic on the 405 FWY on both directions was virtually at a standstill.  The fires spread to 30 acres, then 40 and as of Saturday the fires engulfed about 90 acres of hillside. It was one of the hottest days of the year around 102 degrees Fahrenheit.

It is truly amazing the hard work the Los Angeles Fire Fighters conducted with Air Support dropping water by the millions of gallons. It is even more amazing this is a very congested area with multimillion dollar homes and not one was lost.

For those of you who are not familiar with the neighborhood I am going to give you a Market Snap Shot of what is active on the market for sale in a one mile radius of the Getty Center. It is amazing not one home needed to be evacuated, not one home lost! Kudos to the Los Angeles Fire Department for their heroic work!  This radius search puts a highlight on very affluent Brentwood & Bel Air communities for your review.

Great news that The Fires by the Getty Center are 100% contained!  Thank God for Firefighters!  We are still on high alert due to our still very dry conditions and of course have not recovered from the huge spring wildfires.

I agree with John. That is some expensive property that the fire fighters protected and hopefully saved!
