The Hanna-Barbera Building at 3400 Cahuenga Boulevard, universally famous cartoon factory and space age birthplace of television animation including The Jetsons TV series, is in critical danger. Opening in 1963 to great fanfare, the futuristic building was designed by Arthur Froelich & Associates for Hanna-Barbera Cartoons and provided the inspiration for the best-loved classic animation the world has known. Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera created The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Magilla Gorilla, Atom Ant, Jonny Quest, just to name a few.
