HOTEL CHELSEA BLOG
Have you seen the Hotel Chelsea, Living With Legends blog? What a mighty fine niche for blogdom. I had the opportunity to stay there one summer and it's just as fabulous and decandant as it wants to be and still rocking with interesting stories.

ftp: At least once a week the blog receives an e-mail from a reader who writes, "How can I move into the legendary Hotel Chelsea?" Well, we snuck in via a sublet. If that fails, there is an apartment available in the East Village that a blog reader or two might be interested in renting. It's a two bedroom apartment in the building that graced the album cover of the '75 Led Zeppelin album, Physical Graffiti.

The website has stories of the current residents, like musician Tim Sullivan, who's lived there since 1982 and former residents as Rufus Wainwright, Patti Smith, William Burroughs, Arthur C Clarke, Mark Twain, Jimi, Janis, Dylan Thomas, and many other writers, artists, and musicians.
