In the mid-1700s Beverly Hills was treasured for its most precious resource – water. For this reason, its early name – El Rodeo de las Aguas (or Gathering of the Waters). Originally a ranch and farmland, the region later transitioned to lima bean fields in the late 19th Century and then was developed as residential property and, ultimately, the “home to the stars”.
