SUMMARY:Weird West Adams crime bus tour
DESCRIPTION:On this guided tour through the Beverly Hills of the early 20th Century\, Crime Bus passengers thrill as Jazz Age bootleggers run amok\, marvel at the Krazy Kafitz family’s litany of murder-suicides\, attempted husband slayings\, Byzantine estate battles and mad bombings\, visit the shortest street in Los Angeles (15′ long Powers Place\, with its magnificent views of the mansions of Alvarado Terrace)\, discover which fabulous mansion was once transformed into a functioning whiskey factory using every room in the house\, and stroll the haunted paths of Rosedale Cemetery\, site of notable burials (May K. Rindge\, the mother of Malibu) and odd graveside crimes. Featured players include the most famous dwarf in Hollywood\, mass suicide ringleader Reverend Jim Jones\, wacky millionaires who can’t control their automobiles\, human mole bank robbers\, comically inept fumigators\, kids trapped in tar pits\, and dozens of other unusual and fascinating denizens of early Los Angeles. \nThere are even some celebrity sites along the route\, including the death scenes of Motown soul sensation Marvin Gaye and 1920s star Angels baseball catcher Gus Sandberg. And the architecture too is to die for\, as the Crime Bus rolls down the elegant streets of old West Adams\, lined with gay mansions\, adorable bungalows and signs of a century’s decay which only enhance the neighborhood’s charm. \nThe tour also offers an overview of the neighborhood’s many early subdivisions\, and a groundbreaking court case that helped end housing discrimination nationwide. \nPassengers on this eye-opening\, funny and informative tour will forever see the West Adams district in a new light. It is highly recommended for natives and newcomers alike\, crime and history buffs and anyone who likes to seek out the unexpected.
