Kingswell Avenue Studio - In 1923, Walt Disney was rooming with his Uncle Robert on Kingswell Avenue in Hollywood. When he got a contract for his Alice Comedies, and was ready to start his company, he went down the street and rented the back half of a real estate office near the corner of Kingswell and Vermont. This was the first Disney Studio. When Walt and his bother, Roy, had made enough money, they moved into the storefront next door, and had Disney Bros. Studio painted on the window.
