Marilyn Monroe....

Marilyn Monroe’s Former Home Temporarily Saved from Demolition After Permits Were Issued Last Week.

The Hollywood icon only ever independently owned one home, where she lived and died at the age of 36 in 1962.

On Friday, Sept. 8, the L.A. City Council voted to save late actress Marilyn Monroe’s Brentwood home from demolition—for now.

Monroe purchased the 2,624-square-foot hacienda for $77,500, shortly after parting ways with her ex-husband, playwright Arthur Miller, in February 1962.

That property, which is still standing in Los Angeles’ star-studded neighborhood of Brentwood, was facing the possibility of destruction after the Department of Building and Safety issued a demolition permit to its current owner, Glory of the Snow Trust on Tuesday, Sept. 5.

Born Norma Jeane Mortenson, Marilyn Monroe was a sex symbol of the 1950s and 1960s and one of the key public figures of the era who made a lasting mark on pop culture. A model, actress and singer, Monroe is remembered 60 years after her death on 4 August 1962 as a kind woman with a generous spirit.

She struggled with addiction and mood disorders. Her marriages to retired baseball star Joe DiMaggio and to playwright Arthur Miller were highly publicized, but ended in divorce. On August 4, 1962, she died at age 36 from an overdose of barbiturates at her Los Angeles home. Her death was ruled a probable suicide.
