Completed in 1905 the posh hotel was located on the corner of 7th and Broadway, was nine stories high, had 300 rooms, two dining rooms and boasted of being within "a stones throw of Bullocks and Hamburgers Deartment stores as well as the Orpheum, and Majestic theaters."

The Lankershim hotel was demolished in the 1980's due to damage caused by the 1971 Sylmar earthquake.  A parking structure now sits at the location.
