The Regency Hotel is infamous for being the building where actor Divine (Harris Glenn Milstead) died of an enlarged heart - due to his obese frame he had an additional sleep apnea, so that his physician told him to not sleep on his back, which he then ignored and thus died in his sleep from cardiac arrest through sleep apnea - March 7, 1988 while staying in second-story front-room number 261.
