On the Grid : Millennium Biltmore Hotel
"While the ongoing theme of Downtown L.A. may seem to be historic, this building is the most historic of all the historic. Opened in 1923, this hotel has served celebrities, presidents and dignitaries and was one of the first homes to the Academy Award Ceremony for the Oscars. It's also made a few cameos in our favorite episodes of Mad Men. Mainly, we just love the architecture. Covered in frescoes, murals tapestries, columns and oak-paneled walls (which we wish could talk), this hotel, bar and event center is a place we frequent to step back into history." - TypeEd
