The City of Angels is home to many of the most glamorous residences in the world — and some of the most notorious. Here at Hot Property, we often put together lists of the most jawdropping Malibu mansions or the priciest home sales of the month. This time around, we’re taking a look at some of the most infamous residences that are still standing in the Los Angeles area.“If a crime is notorious enough, there’s a very real danger that the structure will be demolished or altered to preserve the property value and deter sightseers,” said Kim Cooper, a true-crime historian, mystery novelist and L.A. tour bus operator. “But when a crime passes far enough into memory, there’s something quaint and almost sweet about a crime scene.”

Nicole Brown Simpson’s condo 879 S. Bundy Drive, Los Angeles, 90049 This
decidedly nondescript condo continues to fascinate the public more than
21 years after Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman were
brutally murdered just outside its front door, a crime that her
ex-husband, O.J. Simpson, was charged with and later acquitted of. (A
subsequent civil trial found him responsible for their deaths.) Though
the condo’s address has been changed in a feeble attempt at disguising
its notoriety, the recent hit TV show “The People v. O.J. Simpson”
brought yet another wave of gawkers. Westside real estate values being
what they are, the condo’s infamy hasn’t scared buyers away: It went for
$525,000 two years after the murders and sold again in 2006 for $1.72
million.

Susan Berman’s rental home 1527 Benedict Canyon Drive, Beverly Hills, 90210 The
Benedict Canyon house where real-estate heir Robert Durst allegedly
murdered writer and longtime friend Susan Berman has had a tough time
finding permanent residents despite its location in one of L.A.’s tonier
neighborhoods. The 80-year-old home — featured prominently in the
crime-scene photos and dramatic reenactments in the hit HBO show “The
Jinx” — has been on and off the market for years. Its latest asking
price was $1.3 million, with a listing that touted it as a “beautiful
completely remodeled 3 bdrm, 2 bath home w/exquisite upgrades
throughout.” With no takers, it went back on the rental market for
$5,950 a month.

Greystone Mansion 905 Loma Vista Drive, Beverly Hills, 90210 Not
long after Ned Doheny — the son of oil baron Edward Doheny — and his
family moved into the newly constructed estate, the 36-year-old died
under mysterious circumstances in one of its opulent guest bedrooms in
1929, one-half of a murder-suicide with his longtime friend and
secretary.
Yet Ned’s
widow and, later, her second husband, continued to live in the home
before selling it in 1955. They were the last people to occupy the
historic mansion, which functioned mostly as a filming location before
becoming a public park in the 1970s. It remains a popular location for
weddings and Hollywood productions, having recently appeared in “The
Social Network” and the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” reboot.
