For a Tychonoff space , let be the family of hypographs of all continuous maps from to endowed with the Fell topology. It is proved that has a dense separable metrizable locally compact open subset if is metrizable. Moreover, for a first-countable space , is metrizable if and only if itself is a locally compact separable metrizable space. There exists a Tychonoff space such that is metrizable but is not first-countable.
