If they’re asking you for footage of things that they don’t have camera coverage of, can you work out a deal with them? In exchange for your videos, they allow you access to the building? It seems to me that would be beneficial to both of you. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

They are being fined for more than 4 million dollars for the sign alone. From what I have gathered in my own searches is that, they are not getting away with it, but they are trying to do as they please to make money yes. He bought the place for like 30 mil. And spent over 100 mil in renovations alone in 2017. The extent of the historical damages need to be recorded, documented and brought to court to get the final verdict. But they haven’t even started with the case, because “they can’t get in to asses the damages. Private property right? Just like everything else they need warrants and permission to go inside. I’m sure if the people make more noise about this the process can move faster. I don’t think they should be able to do such things with historical buildings. I think if renovations are in order then a historian and official one, should be hired and sent in to review what they want to change BEFORE they change anything. But sadly… this is why we got. I wonder if anyone will protest against this change. It goes against ALL historical laws set to preserve our history. Enough of our history has not only been destroyed but a lot goes untold. But yeah, that’s where they are at now. Honestly….. can’t we sue the owner for making such changes? If enough people do so…. Maybe we can get the changes made to bring it back to its historical stature. No money would be rewarded, but I think the hotel should belong to a museum. That way people can always go see it. The extra rooms can be used as viewing areas for the guests, like different scary haunting themes to go on each floor. Telling you through stories about other haunting places out in the world. I think that would be really cool.

I agree with you 1000% it's really rediculous that's happening. To bad. Unfortunately, hate to say it, but for the kind of people they're renting to, it's probably a lot of overdosing going on. Sad. Congratulations on your book. That's great!!! Always great to see your videos Pete!!

This isn’t the first time LA County has used a historical landmark that’s known to be haunted, and turned it into low income housing. There’s low income housing at the old Metro Hospital, in Norwalk, I lived there for 11 years. Had many similar issues, no security cameras, high increase of emergency vehicles, dangerous windows, windows without screens etc. If Peet, or maybe someone else has more questions, I’m willing to talk, but I probably don’t want my face shown on camera.

Same scenario in Wi in the historical school building Im at. Most of us concluded its all about the money they get & dont even have budgets to sustain employees need or even supplies. It would be a dump if few of us didn't clean the whole thing every week or so.

Unbelievable!! That sign was iconic!! Unless they think removing the landmark will magically make people forget that it’s the Cecil

In regards to Elisa Lam: looking at the footage from the elevator , it seems to me as if she is playing a game of “hide and seek” with her being known to be friendly and open to meet new people it would not be such a strange idea that she made a “friend” in the hotel who was not so friendly and knew his/her way around the hotel.we are all looking at the footage of Elisa… but have they looked at other roaming people on the cameras that day/night. Surly there must be more then just this!

They should never have painted over the sign. As for the emergency exit to the roof.. they need to leave it incase of fire in the lower levels..but they should make it harder for suicides to occur.

Legally they do not need that as a fire exit; it was not up to code, and most highrise buildings do not allow access to the roof that way.

Ah yes. Let's mess around (paint over sign) with a potentially haunted building with a bad history. That'll go well.

Thanks for the update! One of the most haunted places in America! You're a Genius!👌 Great theories and ideas!🥰 I'd never move into that building!😬😳 and I'm a Paranormal researcher/investigator!😬

I enjoy the videos, very creative! A suggestion learned in college TV broadcasting is when doing various backgrounds (video or otherwise) with you in the foreground, use yellow light(s) up & behind you with a broadcast blue or green screen. The colors will reflect on your head & shoulders making you partially or tottaly disappear. A yellow overhead casting a highlight on your head & shoulders. This will cancels the reflected blue or green light from the backdrop preventing you from fading in/out of you. Avoid wearing clothes that have those 2 colors or those areas will disappear revealing the image. Those 2 colors are specific for chroma keys, matts, etc. They're usually not used in fabrics used in clothing manufacturing. Keep up the great work. There is more info online & youtube. God bless!

I found your channel due to the Cecil videos. It is sad when any historical building changes etc. It's interesting why so much negative energy is around that hotel. It does make sense why it's haunted to be honest. It has a lot of issues but it's an interesting place for sure.

In case you guys don’t know who Elisa Lam is,she was visiting the Cecil hotel. She was in the elevator clicking random buttons,which no one knows why. It’s almost as someone was chasing her,but she has bipolar something (I don’t know the name I’m sorry) And she didn’t take her medications. So I’m pretty sure she was hallucinating. Now this part is interesting. Some people from the hotel started complaining about the water being weird color,and funny taste. So the employees went to check it out. They opened the lid,and found Elisa Lam dead in the tank. Now since she was hallucinating,she probably thought to “hide” in the water tanks,to get away from the “chasing person” Now I’m sorry this is very long,but I tried my best to explain 😂

I live all the way in Detroit by Eloise & when I learned about skid row over a decade ago & learned about the housing crisis in California my first and only thought was why aren't they utilizing the hotel to help the homeless. We have homeless people in Detroit but we have too many vacant homes whole neighborhoods-vacant the majority are legally unlivable but people stay where they need to stay and no one owns these vacant houses. So it's nothing as severe as it is in LA. It breaks my ❤️

I swear one of these days if you end up in a video pulling the mask off someone, and they say I would have gotten away with it too if it hadn't been for that meddlesome kid, I won't at all be surprised 😅

WOW! I know they said they were trying to improve the place but seems Los Angelas has been knocking down every historic landmark they can in the name of progress! The doughnut you see in Ironman was moved to save it! But a lot of iconic places have been knocked down - this is why when I hear that they made one a registered historic place, I ask "Yeah how long will that last?" This is sad but not at all surprising! What I hope they do is if it is low income, that the company does keep up the building!

Hi Pete. I'm new to your channel. I'm from Ireland so I only knew about Cecil Hotel 🏨 from the number of murderers that have been there and of course the Lam case, however I never knew it was located in Skid Row. It's amazing the place has not been burned down by notorious gangs or just left to fall apart. Goes to show you there's more to Skid Row than what you hear. The locals were probably afraid of the hotel

5 million dollar fine but also they must return the sign to its original state. Well that is if it was in the UK. Not sure about over there. Then they would have Surveyors come out and inspect the rest ( at their cost ) to see what else they fudged up. Costs could rack up quick for them if that is the case.

I thought that buildings weren’t allowed to have windows that could open (aside from emergency exits) above a certain height That makes since right?
