The Venice Beach Cotel – aka SanDeE*’s Apartment from “L.A. Story”
‘ One location that I have been dying to track down ever since first moving to Southern California in 2000 was the apartment building where SanDeE* (my girl Sarah Jessica Parker) lived in the 1991 classic comedy L.A. Story. (And yes, that is the correct spelling of her name – as she says in the…

The “License to Drive” Hospital
