Josh Kamensky at Eric Garcetti's office says it's no accident the Edendale Silent Film obelisk is still standing.

The developer of the condo site is working with Hollywood Heritage to move the obelisk to an easement [near] the Public Storage facility [a little farther south down Glendale Blvd.] -- which, it turns out, is nearer to the site of the old Mack Sennett studios than the obelisk's original location.
