The Hollywood Cross (also known as the Hollywood Pilgrimage Memorial Monument) is a 32-foot high, steel cross and
Van Nuys.[1]
In the early 1980s the cross fell into disrepair. Conquest GBC, Inc. led by general contractor Jim Korkunis rebuilt the monument in 1993. A Sikorsky helicopter was rented for a total of $4,500 and took about an hour to place. Today the cross still stands strong and sturdy.
