Monopoly in LA?

As Hasbro starts an online voting this week for Monopoly's Here & Now Edition, they ask online voters to select L.A.'s (among other cities) definitive landmark. As this comes to pass over the next few weeks (through May 12th), all Angelenos should look inward and see what they would think is the quintessential Los Angeles landmark.

The Monopoly folks provide three choices:
1. Rodeo Drive
2. Sunset Boulevard
3. Hollywood

Obviously, Hollywood is the best "Los Angeles" Landmark, as the other two are in Beverly Hills and West Hollywood (the most world-famous part, at least).

If I had to nominate the top three Los Angeles Landmarks to represent Los Angeles (the City!) to the world, I would choose:
1. The Hollywood Sign
2. The Rodia "Watts" Towers
3. Venice Beach

Which of these three would get the highest vote, I wonder?

In turn, what would your top three landmarks be to represent Los Angeles to the world?
