Walt and Roy Disney put down a $400 deposit on a lot at 2719 Hyperion Ave., in the Silver Lake district of Los Angeles, California. They plan to build a new animation studio. Their neighbors were a gas station and an organ factory. The new studio included two small offices for Walt and Roy Disney, a camera room, and a large partitioned work area for the animators and ink and paint staff. The building will serve as the Disney's base for the next fifteen years. Cartoons animated here include Oswald the Rabbit, Steamboat Willie, Ferdinand the Bull, and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
