If you get the chance go see The Roosevelt Hotel. It sitsacross the street and to the right (7000 Hollywood Blvd.) of Mann's.It has a very subtle entrance so don't bolt by it. This building isfull of hand painted details and pure Hollywood history. I spent alot of time staring at the details in the ceiling panels and even upand down the stairs. Also pop into the basement. There is a mirrordown there that use to sit in one of the hotel rooms. Marilyn Monroe,apparently, spent time in front of it, staring at herself. Some sayit's haunted by her spirit, some say it's just an after effect (sortof a time echo or spiritual signature), others just mumble 'poppycock'. It doesn't really matter. The area around the mirror isspotless, quiet, and has a wonderful picture of the goddess ofsexuality herself, on the wall.
