Doors - Jim Morrison - Last US Home

[@denislacombe4103]

This video is quite amazing!!! It gave me the chills ! It was as if Jim was still living in this house !!! Thank you very much for this video! A French Man...

[@anthonyuhalley3771]

That isn't the only place you can stay in the US where he lived. Right by there is the Alta Cienega Motel. It's room 32, he even mentions it in one of his poems as the Green motel. He lived there for 2 years around the time he recorded LA woman. It'd even shown in his film HWY. After there he moved to this residence. I stayed at the motel twice but haven't stayed here yet. Awesome you had the chance man.

[@cagurl9113]

Isn't that where he took his groupies to keep Pam from finding out!!

[@spellsofvertigo8921]

I lived here for a month in April 2013. It was strange... but cool AF. Long live JM.

What did it if like could you fill him ?

In what way strange.?

This apartment belonged to Pamela Courson. Jim would come visit before they left for Paris in March 1971. The downstairs apartment belonged to publicist Diane Gardiner, a neighbor of Pams, where Jim did his last US interview with Rolling stone reporter Ben Fong -Torres in Feb. 1971. Dianes apartment was 8216 Norton Ave.

[@daisyjane1070]

They did live together, and owned a dog together. I don't know why some people want to cast doubt on whether Jim lived here with Pamela, when it has never been a question.

[@MothGirl007]

@@daisyjane1070 They lived together in a rented house in Beachwood Canyon for two years (1968 - 1969) and their dog's name was Sage. Noone seems to know this - it's very weird.

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

Great video. You can feel Jim in the place. You can stay in a few places Jim lived or hung out in L.A. A cool tour of Jim Morrison places would be Venice Beach and Laurel Canyon.

[@daisyjane1070]

The Venice Beach rooftop apartment would be extremely cool to see. Jim wrote most of the Doors' early songs there.

[@robertmartinez4174]

Someone posted a comment about this place on another Video and remarked that Most of the things that were from Jim Morrison's Time were replaced. but I was born and raised in Los Angeles and I can say with certainty that a lot of what I see in this footage looks pretty authentic for an early 1930's structure. I've seen a lot of (remodeled Buildings) which almost bought me to tears 😪

I bet those stairs were a bitch when he was drunk!! he sounded very sweet charming and happy in the Ben fong-torres interview and they mentioned Diane Gardner who lived downstairs.sadly they are all gone now, as Jim & Pam were only shooting stars!!

[@johnwright291]

Im from Tacoma and I went to LA for the first time since 1969 when i was 13 in 2013. I walked the sunset strip at least a dozen times and about all that happened was I was given the Evil Eye when I walked by the chateau marmont by the security guard there. Other than that nothing. On a Saturday night. The strip in little old Tacoma Washington had way more action.

[@johnnyconnelly7278]

Who decorated the place..Prince?

[@kathy4655]

I would love to see this so bad. I wonder how much is the exact way it was when Jim and Pam lived there? I love the interview by Ben Fong Torres done in Diane's apt. too!

[@orvil9223]

+kathy mccullough The interior set up of the house is most likely exactly the same. With the exception of the paint, everything looks to be pre-1970. The home was built in 1932, and it looks like it had a remodel done in the mid sixties, as the kitchen and bathroom tile are from that era and the windows, doors and even the handles on the "pull open" windows( you can see one over the bed) are from then, unless they were replaced with replicas ( the handles ) but, the doors and windows are original from the era ( pre-1970 ) The cabinetry also appears to be from that era. In my opinion, that house has not had an update since the 60's, at the latest, and it is obvious that no remodel has been done that changed the floor plan since it was built, as evidenced by the size of the one bathroom and the dimensions of the "bedroom". The only remodeling has been to update tile and counters, bring wiring up to code, etc, and was most likely done in the 60's. So, if you go stay there, probably will get the whole "Jim experience" lol. Don't forget 8021 Rothdell Tr, known as "The Love Street", another of his houses that he stayed at and the Canyon Country Store in the same intersection, many stories about that store with much more than just Jim!

[@kathy4655]

Thanku for your great information!!!

[@daisyjane1070]

The oak floors are also original. The apartment was being re-modeled in 2005 when I stayed there; the owner Cherie has extensively renovated the whole building since then is my understanding. She was selling the Spanish tile from the steps and bathroom tiles, door fixtures, etc online for several years.

Jim Said it best. MONEY beats Soul EVERYTIME

[@StanSwan]

Then he cashed his million dollar royalty checks. Money was freedom for him he did not buy cars or homes but had the means to do or go anywhere he wanted.

[@EPJamesMacAdams]

Ray Pellerin When you say something like that it's a shortcut to THINKING

[@bumcheek7]

hahaha b true Jim was a nut

[@stflaw]

Yeah, he should have taken a principled stand and told the record company to keep the money.

[@paulcooper5748]

I always thought he was just being sarcastic when he would say that like he meant the opposite.

[@jeffreyschnoldt5388]

Now he lives in Oregon, as a cowboy

[@Toodlem]

Nobody mentions the house he had on N. Kings Road near the Continental Hyatt House (AKA - the "Riot House"). Tony Funches mentions it briefly but I still don't know where the exact address is.

[@daisyjane1070]

It's my understanding that the house was purchased by the Doors' accountants as an investment. Not sure if Jim stayed there or even knew about it.

[@traviskirschner793]

Also, I believe Mr. Funches said upon trying to find the house, it was found to have been torn down.

Holly shit is jim looking out the window if you look you can see him wow. His ghost man that is wild jim ghost i saw it in the window i swear in the window i saw him thats wild that i saw him in the window .wen that picture cam up there he was looking out the window at me and i could see him through the window shit we both were looking at each other through the window . was that him i saw in the window naaaw or maybe no it was jim i saw through that fucking window and i dont care if you didnt see him in the bye

I appreciate the style of this home, but it needs some more subtle colors. The pinks and purples on the walls are nice for dresses, but more neutral colors for those walls.

I always linger long on Love Street. Just saying...

This is not the residence referenced in that song. That location is off Laurel Canyon.

[@LuisMartinez-ho9rz]

This house is like for poor people .... Where is the he money ??? This guy earn ? That's not a mansion .... My house is more luxury than that

[@xfhghe]

Right, not a mansion. Looks like a 1920-30's California interpretation of Spanish Colonial architecture. The interior paint choice is terrible. But otherwise, the building is not badly done. You do find older homes/apartments that have been neglected in depressed neighborhoods in LA. So maybe that can account for the association with poor people. However, a lot of those areas are getting gentrified today. And an apartment building like this would be a decent find.
