HIDDEN GEM

Louis Armstrong House Museum

Louis Armstrong lived in this modest brick house in Corona for nearly thirty years, right up until his death in 1971, and it's been kept exactly as he and his wife Lucille decorated it, gold-leaf kitchen and all. Most jazz fans expect a mansion; instead you get a genuinely humble family home in a working-class block.
