The Rockford Files - Episode: A Good Clean Bust with Sequel Rights (1978) Marriott Airport Hotel, Spotlight Club Bar, Astro Theater, Merit Savings Bank, Florsheim Shoes



ABOVE IMAGES: Still frames from this episode of the Los Angeles Marriott Airport Hotel. The baby blue interior is a sign of the 1970's! Below is the way the Marriott Airport Hotel appeared during this period. The Marriott Hotel has spent millions of dollars in updating this large hotel. 


ABOVE IMAGE: Aerial shot overlooking the 300 Block of East First Street during the late 1970's as seen in this episode. Florsheim Shoes is on the left Merit Savings Bank is on the right. 

ABOVE IMAGE: Aerial shot overlooking the 300 Block of South Broadway during the late 1970's as seen in this episode. The Astro Theater can be seen on the left.   

 Above Images: The Spotlight Club THEN & NOW. 
Located at 1601 N. Cahuenga in Los Angeles.

ABOVE IMAGE:  This inside bar scene is suppose to be the interior of the Spotlight Club. But based on the doorway being totally different than the exterior shot, I would guess this is a studio/stage bar located at NBC / Universal studios. I do love the sign on the wall just past the man sitting at the bar that reads "CHILI 20 CENTS"
