Location Specific - The Alexandria Hotel
Doug Stern with a new recurring feature on notable music video locales...
Few locations loom as large in the history of music videos as the decrepit, but perpetually 'soon to be renovated' Alexandria Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. Built at the start of the 1900s, the Alexandria reflected a time when downtown LA was 'the' city, Hollywood was a remote suburb and Santa Monica was a long journey through bean and tomato fields.
