Johnny Depp Fights For His Views
Filed under: Estates, Celebrity Shopping
Johnny Depp may be famous for saying that he is raising his kids in France but that he still wants them to enjoy
the view when they are in Los Angeles. The LA
Times reports that Depp has filed a lawsuit over plans for a retail project that might impinge on the views from his
Hollywood Hills home. Depp owns a $5.4 million home on Sweetzer Ave. (the same street Morrissey lived on before putting
his house on the market). Depp's claim is that the city violated environmental-quality laws by approving the
development on a lot beneath his home and that his his children may be deprived of their view. Those on the other side
of the debate are flabbergasted since Depp has been quoted as saying that he would not raise his children in the
States. Depp lives in a Norman-style mansion known then as "The Fairy Castle." The proposed
project, across from The Standard hotel on the Sunset Strip would be about 40 feet below Depp's house but the building
would block views from the sloping bottom backyard terrace where the children would play. The project is now delayed.
