context_page_description: The El Royale is a historic apartment complex located at the intersection of Rosewood Avenue and Rossmore Avenue in Los Angeles. It was designed by famed architect William Douglas Lee and completed in 1929.
  The apartment building is known as a home for celebrities, and for its iconic green neon rooftop sign, which had been unlit for 50 years.
context_section_description: The El Royale has been known as a home for celebrities over the years, including Nicolas Cage, Huell Howser, Al Jolson, and George Raft.
  Scenes for Double Indemnity (1944) were filmed in the building's garage. The front facade of the building has been used in scenes for the TV series All of Us and Girlfriends, implying that one of the fictional characters from each show lived at the apartments. The El Royale, however, is not the setting of the 2018 movie Bad Times at the El Royale.
