Biff's House (1955)


As Marty said, "It looks like some old lady lives here." He was right. IBack to the Future Part II we learned Biff lived with his grandma. Today, the house looks pretty much the same as it did in the movie. The yard is a little less cluttered without the lawn ornaments, fence, and "no trespassing" sign. I didn't venture around back, for fear I might get locked in the garage while trying to steal the Grays Sports Almanac.

Hill Valley High School (1955 & 1985)

Hill Valley High School was an important setting for both Back to the Future and Back to the Future Part II. So much happened here, but it had never been planked...until now. The school is actually Whittier High School in Whittier, California. It is a public school that is still very much in use today--the home of the Cardinals! President Richard Nixon attended this high school. The school and Principal Strickland's house are about a half a black apart from each other. There is a fence around the school grounds, which I was not able to enter when I visited, so I planked on the sidewalk outside.
