Most photos of the Hollywood Hotel at the corner of Hollywood and Highland only show a part of the hotel so it’s hard to get a good idea of how big the place was. This panoramic shot shows us how wide the front of the hotel was, and how striking a landmark it must have been in its day.
I always appreciate any photo of this grand ole gal, but this one is especially spectacular. I never realized, like Martin pointed out, just how spread-out she was. I still think I was around in her heyday as I’ve always been drawn to the Hollywood Hotel. Sad she’s gone but only in the physical sense. Thanks to Martin’s blog, she lives on!
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE REASON WHY THE WOULD KNOCK DOWN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING ?????? WHAT A HORRIBLE MISTAKE. CHEERS DENIEL EDWARDS.
