Take a trip down down Kingman Avenue, which dead-ends at the border of the Riviera Country Club, in this week's edition of Viewfinder. Kingman was the scene of a Feb. 10 fire which was extinguished quickly and did not spread beyond one home.

Also on Kingman Avenue: A home built in 1929 for screen siren Dolores Del Rio. The home was built for Del Rio by her husband, Academy Award-winning set designer Cedric Gibbons.

Enjoy!
