LA's Morrison Hotel, made famous by Doors album, to become affordable housing
By ABC7.com staff
Wednesday, December 20, 2023 1:02AM
LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- The Morrison Hotel in Los Angeles - made famous by the legendary Doors' album of the same name - is set to become affordable housing.
The AIDS Healthcare Foundation acquired the downtown LA hotel property for $11.9 million earlier this month and plans to convert the building into 111 units of low-income housing.
On hand to make the announcement Tuesday were Doors drummer John Densmore, 79, and photographer Henry Diltz, who shot the iconic album cover more than 50 years ago.
"The people who work in the city can't afford to live in the city, so the Morrison Hotel is now going to be a solution to that problem," Densmore said.
The single-room occupancy hotel was built in 1914.
The Doors made the hotel's front facade famous when band members snuck in while the clerk was busy and Diltz quickly shot a series of photos under the "Morrison Hotel" lettering, with singer Jim Morrison front and center in the window.
The 1970 album is highly regarded in rock history, featuring classics such as "Roadhouse Blues" and "Peace Frog."
The AHF says a developer had originally planned to demolish the building and turn it into a luxury hotel, but the developer defaulted on the loan. AHF's plans call for adaptive reuse of the existing structure, "saving a piece of rock and roll history."

O Morrison Hotel de Los Angeles, que ficou famoso pelo álbum Doors, se tornará uma habitação a preços acessíveis
LOS ANGELES (KABC) – O Morrison Hotel em Los Angeles – que ficou famoso pelo lendário álbum de mesmo nome do Doors – está prestes a se tornar uma habitação acessível.
A AIDS Healthcare Foundation adquiriu o hotel no centro de Los Angeles por US$ 11,9 milhões no início deste mês e planeja converter o edifício em 111 unidades de habitação de baixa renda.
Presentes para fazer o anúncio na terça-feira estavam o baterista do Doors, John Densmore, 79, e o fotógrafo Henry Diltz, que fotografou a icônica capa do álbum há mais de 50 anos.
"As pessoas que trabalham na cidade não têm dinheiro para viver na cidade, por isso o Morrison Hotel será agora uma solução para esse problema", disse Densmore.
O hotel para ocupação de quarto individual foi construído em 1914.
The Doors tornou a fachada frontal do hotel famosa quando os membros da banda entraram furtivamente enquanto o funcionário estava ocupado e Diltz rapidamente tirou uma série de fotos sob as letras "Morrison Hotel", com o cantor Jim Morrison na frente e no centro da janela.
O álbum de 1970 é altamente considerado na história do rock, apresentando clássicos como “Roadhouse Blues” e “Peace Frog”.
A AHF diz que um desenvolvedor planejou originalmente demolir o prédio e transformá-lo em um hotel de luxo, mas o desenvolvedor não pagou o empréstimo. Os planos da AHF prevêem a reutilização adaptativa da estrutura existente, "salvando um pedaço da história do rock and roll".
