Moving Picture World, 26-September-1914

Universal's old Los Angeles studio had burned earlier in the year: http://bigvriotsquad.blogspot.com/2014/05/after-recent-fire-may-6-2014.html

"THE UNIVERSAL is now spending A MILLION DOLLARS in the construction of AN ENTIRE CITY -- a City large enough to hold a population of 15,000. A City to be devoted exlusively to the making of Motion Pictures."
