As part of a unique project, the iconic Hollywood sign would be turned into a hotel with spectacular views. Well, it’s just on paper yet, by Danish architect Christian Bay-Jorgensen has come out with plans for a makeover to make the Hollywood sign into a super-luxury hotel.
The Los Angeles Daily News recently reported that a Danish architect met with the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to propose that a luxury hotel, incorporating the 9-letter sign, be built on the site. His plan calls for each letter to be rebuilt 90 feet tall (twice their current height) and enclose lavish guest rooms with enviable views of the city. The rest of the hotel would be built behind the letters and would, in Bay-Jorgensen’s plan, include public spaces that could serve as locations for awards ceremonies.
It will also include various amenities such as a movie theatre, pool area, restaurants, a conference room, a museum. Each room will have a different theme showing the history of Hollywood, and in a special touch the sign will be illuminated at night.
If things go right, you might stay like a king inside the Hollywood sign.
