That's just the Pacific Mutual Parking Garage. I never heard of it being called "The Carriage House" before either. It contains LA's first underground parking.

It and the "VIP ramp" between it and the Biltmore are often used in films. A key scene in "Criss Cross" is filmed both inside on "The Carriage House"'s and on the exit ramp to Grand (MR identified the interior as a set. Thx!).

The plinth-mounted lanterns at either end are particularly nice.

There's a post here: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...ostcount=11158

Here's one more screen grab, this time from "Dave" (1993) LA plays DC
