Item Description
For the first time, West Adams Heritage (WAHA) will open the doors to several grand mansions in West Adams Heights - most never before opened to the public. West Adams Heights was developed at the turn of the century. Renowned architects were employed to design imposing homes, taking advantage of its picturesque location on a hill, while also affording views of downtown, the ocean, and scenic landscape vistas.
Tour highlights include the Rindge “Castle,” built by the family that once owned Malibu; and the Charles I.D. Moore Residence, designed by the firm of Hudson & Munsell, architects of the Natural History Museum in Exposition Park. You'll pass by the home of actress Hattie McDaniel, who in 1940 became the first black thespian to receive an Academy Award, for her performance in “Gone With the Wind.”
This is a self-guided tour, with the properties clustered within easy strolling distance of each other. Please, no high heels. WAHA is a 501(c)(3) organization. Proceeds will be used to advance preservation activities in the West Adams District, including Historic Cultural Monument nominations, Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) expansions, and cultural heritage educational programs.
