All About Disney Addresses Quiz – Answers

Yesterday I provided you with a set of addresses and asked you to match the locations with the inhabitants. Here are the answers. By the way, I got the idea for this quiz while watching the movie “Mary Poppins” when it was mentioned that the Banks live at 17 Cherry Tree Lane.

(A) 100 Acre Wood – (19) Owl

100 Acre Wood is the fictional land created by A. A. Milne and is the home of Winnie-the-Pooh, Tigger, Kanga, Roo, Rabbit, Piglet, Eeyore, and Owl.

(B) 104 Hollywood Boulevard – (21) Sid Cahuenga’s One of a Kind Antiques and Curios

“Sid Cahuenga’s One of a Kind Antiques and Curios” is located at 104 Hollywood Boulevard, Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

So just who is Sid Cahuenga? Was he a real person?

The name “Cahuenga” comes from the Native American people who lived in the Los Angeles area before settlers arrived to the area.

The Cahuenga Pass (pronounced kəˈwɛŋɡa) is a mountain pass in the Santa Monica Mountains. The Hollywood Freeway (U.S. 101) and Cahuenga Boulevard connect the Los Angeles Basin with the San Fernando Valley via Cahuenga Pass.

The name Sid was probably chosen by the Imagineers to honor Sid Grauman, the builder of the Chinese Theater. Many actors would write, “To Sid,” before etching their name in the wet cement of the theater’s forecourt.

The building’s architecture is reminiscent of the Craftsman style bungalow which was popular in Pasadena. The Craftsman style of architecture can also be seen at the entrance of Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
