O.J Simpson's Rockingham home in Los Angeles was torn down in 1998. My mother and I drove by it in early 1996. Between the privacy wall and the greenery there wasn't much to see. The front drive and door where the Bronco arrived carrying Simpson was visible. We also drove down a few blocks to Nicole Brown Simpson's townhouse. The murder scene was clearly visible with the decorative gate in front of where it happened. A major misconception about the home was that it was demolished after her murder. The new owners planted tropical plants and trees to mask the existing site that we viewed. A news article stated that, according to property records, Nicole’s former townhouse was last sold for $1.7 million in 2016.
@@jayusa879 Brentwood is a suburban neighborhood in the Westside region of Los Angeles. It is not a municipal city like Santa Monica is. I referenced Simpson's home in California as Los Angeles to distinguish it from the home that was demolished in Florida. Keep in mind that the events of 1995 occurred 28 years ago as of this writing. Many viewers of the video may not have been born or been too young to have a living memory of it. Also, RUclips is seen around the world today where many potential viewers didn't know about Simpson's events as contemporary news in 1995. They have a better chance of knowing about Los Angeles than one of its suburbs. There is a city in California named "Brentwood" It is located in Contra Costa County in the East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area.
I live not far from Prince's Paisley Park in Chanhassen, MN. What is more interesting however is that just a mile away, on a lake, Prince owned a huge house, with walking paths and a gaurd shack near the entrance. For some reason, decades ago, he had the entire house demolished, but still owned the land. All I can think of is he basically lived at Paisley Park, had no reason to go to the mansion, but was paying huge property taxes. I think he was private enough he didn't want to sell it, just for someone to say they live in Prince's house, so to save on the property taxes he demolished it. I believe he continued to own the land until he passed away. But the true story about what happened to that house I think would be fascinating. His first big house he bought, he painted purple, and eventually gave to his father. The fence outside has a P on the gate. After his father passed away, he had that house also demolished but still owned the land. Don't know what that guy was up to.
Danny Thomas mansion in Hollywood was recently torn down He was a well know actor and philanthropist founder of St. Jude's Hospital and Father of Marlow Thomas
The people who bought Phil Donahue's house are full of crap. Laine & Kevin (Our Restoration Nation) have beautifully restored homes much older and in much worse condition.
The Donahue house is a great house and understand why the trump house had to be leveled. I also get one the Simpson one was also leveled; the connection could creep people out. Always great vids Kyle. Keep Orange Crushing It!
Anytime when PERVERTS SUCH AS HARVEY PERVSTIEN settle monetarily with an innocent victim the victim has to agree signing a Non Disclosure Agreement. When the victim’s lawyers fight over that unlawful agreement the perverts lawyers say, “Sign or get nothing”. There are unfair conditions in NDA’s, such as if the victim talks about the details of the sexual assault the victim can be sued and repay the money paid to keep the victims quiet. In other words, NDA’s are used to enable and continue the sick and perverted behavior of these sick bastards.
Good lord… that French one really upsets me. Beautiful home, the government couldn’t find a way to force him to sell it rather than wasting all the time and effort put into building it by demolishing it?? Always thankful I don’t live in oppressive Europe haha.
That will also happen anywhere in north america if you build something with complete disregard in applying for any building permits or don't wait for the planning commission to approve your plans for your renovation or build. This owner was according to the story a real estate developer, it's his fault if this property gets demolished he should have known better.
9:00, I called BS anything can be saved… Obviously the more they deliberately let it sit the worse it gets… Funny you used the term Primary Suite and Master Bathroom both in the same sentence, it’s the Master Bedroom and Bathroom…
Tomato/tomatoe, potato/patato`. Master suite, master bedroom, primary bedroom, owners retreat... all the same. Just like we dont call living rooms parlors anymore and a foyer the grand hall.
Great video you know the funny thing is the judge in New York says that trumps Mar-a-Lago estate is only worth $18 million. 😂 when the property next to him not even half the size is worth over 150 million Trump makes well over $80 million a year in club revenue from patrons that pay for a membership fee that’s $250,000 per year 😮 he purchased the property pretty cheap, but he did a lot of improvements, and he also made it into a club even though he lives there.
Ok…so No-one wanted to purchase the O.j.Simpson home/Property….at any cost…and he was acquitted of the murder….But A family quickly purchased the Chris Watts Horrible/Haunted Home…in hopes of making it a Happy Home again…..that Home should have been demolished….and erased from Google map forever….freaking Weird…smdh
That Plaza looks fabulous, I do hope it'll stand! (& I get an invite..). - If people saw he bothered to react to Any comments, They might bother to Like.. Common sense, Dumbo.

Millions wasted on rich houses how screwed up is the world when you got people struggling to pay off houses with the cost of living
Excellent video! Strange things can happen when expensive, opulent houses are built on lots that are close to the value of the house itself.
Phill Donahue s Tudor home was big enough and much nicer looking than the monstrosity they built in front of it
This country is so damn wasteful!!!!
It’s “biding one’s time”, not “buying” and, here at 7:25, it’s “falling into disrepair”, not “despair”.

I thought O.J. Simpson lived in Brentwood.
@@jayusa879 No, Nicole lived in Brentwood. OJ lived in Rockingham.
Rockingham is a street, in Brentwood. Check out Phyllis Dillers house down the street from OJ's, it was torn down too.

Lots of interesting stories surround people with way more dollars than sense. Thanks for the anecdote.
The hotel-motel associated with OJ's 2008 conviction is also torn down.
Danny Thomas mansion in Hollywood was recently torn down He was a well know actor and philanthropist founder of St. Jude's Hospital and Father of Marlow Thomas
Too much destroying homes especially one's that have stood a long time
The people who bought Phil Donahue's house are full of crap. Laine & Kevin (Our Restoration Nation) have beautifully restored homes much older and in much worse condition.
Why yall mad at O.J for he didn't set himself Free. Be mad at the people who voted out guilty 🤷🏾♂️😹😹😹✊🏾
Great video!
Ty kyle
Ty Kyle I like your videos 🙃🙂.
Really find the bio of the stars annoying. They are stars and really need no history. Please focus on the house
I loved Harvey’s house, so beautiful, same can’t be said about the man himself.
WOW!!!!! THX.
You can tear the house down, but the ground is haunted.
The Donahue house is a great house and understand why the trump house had to be leveled. I also get one the Simpson one was also leveled; the connection could creep people out. Always great vids Kyle. Keep Orange Crushing It!
Part 2 of homes of famous celebrities that were demolished
That's what you get for producing Shakespeare In Love!!!!!!😁😁😁

Nichol Simpson’s condo should have been demolished, that’s where the evil went down.
Hey. Do you still do the log home shows?
Let me ask a dumb question. Why didnt you call Harvey disgraced like you called OJ?
*OJ Simpson home 360 N. Rockingham Avenue was also demolished!*
This video started out already like it was playing so don't know who's home it was.
Gorgeous!
Beautiful
Nice
I mean joe Pesci the way you pronounce his last name, wow!?!

Why disture it when someone else can live in it
Would like to see OJ and Casey Anthony team up to go after the real killers.
One could investigate the other, to avoid convicting themselves!
Lol, oj did it!!
Lol
Don't ever show this killer again
No that was hollies hoise😊
Still looks good, wife is young!
Marlo should have plenty of $ from milking St Jude and children with cancer!
I'm just glad they couldn't touch O.J.'s pension. Greatest NFL contract in history. 🎯
We don't care about anything this person has or did have
Interesting.
Torintino is mafia!
Are there no architectural standards in the US ? So very many ugly houses built by too many people with new money and no sophistication .
hes just a creepy killer, he will get his
You had to say disgraced when you got to OJ. SMH. It’s just crazy how people just can’t stick to a topic without labeling people
Buuuuut, he was disgraced.
that weinstein mansion... ouch!
So, Trump made another great deal. I can fix anything.

Wow, what a surprise that Weinstein was such good friends with Obama?!🤨
I hate Obama, but to be fair he has zero r@pe accusations, as opposed to The Comb-over Messiah's 26, or Clinton's less than half of Trump.
Ameñnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
Oj evil
Make sure about the donald trump house prices. We know he messes with the prices to look richer
The Trump house alone was demolished because of the stench that exuded from it and the sordid reputation that follows Trump wherever he goes
TDS is real. 🤪
