The Magic Castle and Yamashiro restaurant in Hollywood are being sold by the family that has owned them since the 1940s. The two are expected to keep operating. Vacant land on the site will probably be developed by the new owners.

An early photo of Yamashiro, a replica of a palace in the Yamashiro Mountains near Kyoto, Japan. It was completed in 1914 by the Bernheimer brothers, who wanted a mansion to house their Asian art collection and brought hundreds of craftsmen from Asia to build it.
