A fact from Hollywood Plaza Hotel appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 12 December 2015 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Frank Sinatra often visited the barber shop in the basement of the Hollywood Plaza Hotel to play
gin rummy with the barber?
Please can someone tell me what a "storied intersection" is/does? I tried working it out using Webster's, but he seems to think (as do I) that the adjective "storied" works best, if at all, on buildings. Then again, my Webster's was printed in the 1960s, and maybe back then they didn't have storied intersections.
More seriously (slightly) and with all respect, might I request on behalf of those of us who didn't learn our English in a certain stratum of the US education system - aka Brits (and I suspect others) - that a more widely understood phrase be used for "storied intersection". And (if you did) thanks for substituting a phrase that I can understand. Best wishes
