It still makes me mad that the LA school district just had to tear down the Ambassador Hotel for no good reason. What makes it worse is that they do such a crap job of educating the kids.
It was a complicated situation and a bitterly fought battle. It’s such a shame that a workable and acceptable solution couldn’t be found where the city got to keep such a landmark and the have a much needed school too.
Mesmerizing looking at this thinking of all the stars who came to dance and socialize… but immensely sad too knowing it is now just a long-ago memory.
Like you, Martin, I also enjoy seeing what anything looked like back in the Golden Age of Hollywood.
Thanks for this.
