Visit Beverly Hills describes Trousdale Estates as a hillside community of mid-century modernist homes just north and east of Greystone Mansion and Gardens, named after Paul Trousdale, who parceled the land into 535 lots in the 1960s. The City of Beverly Hills says the Greystone park (905 Loma Vista Drive) is open 10 a.m.–6 p.m. daily (10–5 in winter) and closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and Friends of Greystone says there is no fee for park admission or parking on open days; the mansion itself is open only for special events.
