If you had driven from the start of Route 66 in Chicago, by the time you got the intersection of Doheny Drive and Santa Monica Boulevard, you were nearly there. Santa Monica beach was just a few miles away but I’m sure that motorists who found themselves entering Beverly Hills were bound to take a detour to see if any Hollywood movie stars were roaming around in the wild. This photo was taken some time in the 1940s so I was pleased to see that the building on the left is still around.

Tropicana Motel/Duke's Coffee Shop, Santa Monica Blvd, West Hollywood, 4/7/1985. Another favorite Jim Morrison hangout. The complex was demolished in 1987 and a Ramada Inn is now at the site. Duke's relocated to the Sunset Strip. Duke's closed its doors for good on April 16, 2012. I'm sorry to say that I never patronized it at either of its locations.
