Are there any Black Dahlia sites left in San Diego?
A. Not really. The Bayview Terrace Housing Project, where she lived for the last month of her life, is gone. The site of the “Hacienda Club” is now a large Asian supermarket and the motel where Red Manley stayed on Pacific Highway has been replaced by a fast-food restaurant. The U.S. Grant Hotel is still standing, but plays a very minor role in the case. The shell of the movie theater where she spent the night is still there, but the building had been turned into a clothing store the last time I checked.
