I am not sure if any LoVE-specific buildings were damaged, but a burst pipe on Sunset Blvd. in LA flooded the immediate area and caused damage.

Rick, can you give any specifics on how it might have affected any of the rock venues from the LoVE-Doors-Byrds era?

fields on the campus were inundated, the flooding was far enough
away from the portion of Sunset most famous for music venues, that
those addresses didn't suffer damage. Can't say the same though,
for the many vehicles parked in the below ground garages at UCLA;
lots of sad total losses of those cars. Meanwhile the drought in
California drags on...
It is ironic to have ones car totaled in a "flood" while California suffers through the middle of a deadly drought!
