Supplemental Remarks

new carpet w/xtra padding. The entry hall to this unit is a perfect spot for showing off your art work and the workout room in the bldg has the advantage of free weights. There is valet parking, a full time on-site staff and, unlike many condo bldgs, the walls, floors and ceilings are solid, thick and sound proof which translates into low neighbor noise all around. The grand lobby and ballroom serve to add to its historical ambiance and supports the history as a haven for movie stars like Ginger Rogers, John Wayne, Elvis Presley, Spencer Tracy, Clark Gable, Myrna Loy, Jack Benny, Bing Crosby, Bo Derek...just to name a few and for movie and t.v. shows like "Almost Famous", "A Ticklish Affair","How to Marry a Billionaire" and "Extreme Makeover." The El Cortez began as a hotel and boasts the completion of the first outside glass elevator in the world. Opening day was Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26, 1927 and was celebrated in front of a crowd of 50,000.....1/3 of San Diego's population at that time. The El Cortez has come a long way from those days in terms of modernizing the systems of the bldg while still preserving the beauty of the historical architectural details. Note: 2 pets are allowed but, according to the management co., there is no size restriction.
