SEPTEMBER TOPIC: The Cecil Hotel

Check out Buzz Killers every Sunday for new episodes!

 

In epsiode fifty we discuss the history of the Cecil Hotel and why it has such an unsavory reputation. First opened on December 20, 1924 as a traveller's hotel, the grandiose building was meant to service the many people coming to booming downtown LA. However, shortly after its construction, the Great Depression leveled the downtown community, sending the Cecil Hotel into a downward spiral of debauchery.
