I've been meaning to post this for several days, but Martini Revolution beat me to the punch. Oh well, it's still worth another view.
Live from Van Ness and Melrose, I present... the beautifully gaudy "Alexander, Ruler of the World" apartment building. Crimson-colored, with gold swirls, the building seems like a throwback to L.A.'s golden age of over-the-top theme-inspired homes, apartments and restaurants.
It's a bit louder than the "Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria" apartments on Hillhurst in Los Feliz, or the seven dwarves-style homes on Griffith Park, near Hyperion. But it's definitely in the same realm. What are some of your favorite tacky L.A. residences (besides, of course, the infamous House of Davids, that is)?
