AMBASSADOR HOTEL: LOST IN HISTORY

Opening in 1921 in what's now Korea Town Los Angeles, The Ambassador Hotel was the premier place to stay. Because of it's luxurious atmosphere and the glamorous Cocoanut Grove every celebrity of the day was said to frequent it's palm lined room where liquor was even sold during prohibition. Six Academy Award ceremonies occurred here along with playing host to every U.S. president from Eisenhower to Nixon. In 1968 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated here after giving a speech as he exited the building. Unfortunately the murder and urban deterioration surrounding the area marked a steady decline of the hotel until it was closed to guests in 1989. Except for the occasional film shoot and private party the once glamorous Ambassador Hotel stood vacant for years until it was almost entirely demolished in 2006 to build the Robert F. Kennedy Community Schools system which stands there today. This is a brief history of the building. If you have any questions or I made any historical mistakes please let me know.
