Burj el Murr was built in the 1970s yet has only been used as a sniper hideout during the Lebanese Civil War. After reading about the Holiday Inn hotel being auctioned off soon, I tried looking for updates on the Burj el Murr but found none. Instead I ended up on this dark 11 minute video done by Lina Ghaibeh on the Burj.
PS: Just ignore the warning and watch it on VIMEO.
