Illegal Airbnb listing of a rent controlled unit in Charles Bukowski's East Hollywood bungalow court exposes Pillow & Coffee, a short term rental empire destroying Los Angeles
This investigation is published on the 29th anniversary of Charles Bukowski's death. In 2007, while writing our tour of Bukowski's Los Angeles, we spotted a Craigslist ad that listed the writer’s longtime home in the 1920s bungalow court at 5124 De Longpre Avenue, East Hollywood as a teardown.
Good sleuthing, Kim and Richard!
