HOWARD JOHNSON'S, New Orleans LA
   
 

A Motel 6 today. From the aerial view, looks like they filled in the pool.

There are people today who would pay money to live in that room on a full-time basis. The lamp. The blue plastic ice bucket. The lights by the drapes. Hell, the drapes. The chairs.

It's the kind of room where a man enters, sighs with relief at the air conditioning, and loosens his tie. His narrow, black tie.
