Chateau Marmont is where John Belushi died from a drug overdose. It is close to the motel where Janis Joplin died from drug overdose and right down the street from the bar where River Phoenix had his last drink before he died from a drug overdose.
No big deal. They find hypes and druggies dead at 3rd rate dive hotels all the time. The next big seismic event, the Marmout will likely be reduced to a pile of rubble on Sunset.
