Looking out upon West Hollywood from a balcony at the Sunset Hyatt Hotel (later Andaz West Hollywood), showing the neighborhood and the iconic Sunset Tower Downtown Los Angeles is partially visible through the haze on the right. In 1929, Leland A. Bryant, an architect known for luxurious structures, designed the Art Deco Sunset Tower, located at 8358 Sunset Blvd. Since its opening in 1931, the hotel has served as the residence for many celebrities, including Frank Sinatra, Howard Hughes, Elizabeth Taylor, Zasu Pitts, Bugsy Siegel, Errol Flynn and Marilyn Monroe. Additionally, it has appeared in a number of films and books.
