The site is not far from the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, California, where "Friends" was filmed.

Perry gained fame at the age of 24 after he was cast as Chandler Bing in "Friends."

However, Perry wanted to be remembered as something more than his character from the sitcom.

"The best thing about me, bar none, is if somebody comes up to me and says, 'I can't stop drinking, can you help me?' I can say yes and follow up and do it," he said in a November 2022 interview with Tom Power. "When I die, I don't want 'Friends' to be the first thing that's mentioned. I want that to be the first thing that's mentioned."
