I live in Riverside. At the library, I overheard a rumor that the Spanish and Indians built a long tunnel from the Mission Inn all the way to MT. Rubidoux.
WOW! Friggin' crazy! There are TONS of interesting rumors around the Mission Inn Tunnels. According to this website below (don't know how valid the information is, but it's intriguing to read nonetheless), rumor has it that these tunnels date back to the days of Prohibition, and they were a means of smuggling the alcohol around. There's also rumors of paranormal activity at these tunnels' entrances...😳 Maybe it's time for a ghost hunt in Riverside?? hmmm... Weird California Blog: www.weirdca.com/location.php?location=121
That library in downtown Riverside was built in 1965. The original library, in that same location, was called the Carnegie library and looked like the Mission Inn. What is now the city museum was, at one time, the city police station. Next door was the city hall. That “large paper cup “ was a factory when I was a kid. One of our neighbors (when I was growing up) worked there. My grandparents came to Riverside from Kansas in the depression (1937) and moved to a home near Mt. Rubidoux. I was born and raised in Riverside but I’ve lived in the Northwest for 40 years. I return from time to time but none of my family are alive so there’s no one to visit. Gravestones, yes, people, no. But I do miss certain things there.
As you stand facing the Mission on 7th, with the arches facing you, notice how they appear to be ‘broken off’ at Orange street. The reason is those arches once continued down 7th to the freeway overpass (sorry, I don’t recall the freeway number,I haven’t lived there in a number of years). They were removed, I think, because of the continued maintenance.
As a Riverside native, I thoroughly enjoyed your video and upbeat personality. You definitely hit some of my favorite places . True that about the roads and the fact that they can change names several times without you ever leaving that street. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Marta! Riverside is a neat town and has quite a bit to do there! Just not so much on Tuesdays because most of the museums are closed! (Caught me off guard making the video LOL) Nevertheless, it was fun making it and I’m glad you like it!😎✌🏼
@@hoseysmoseys the museums are closed because the mayor doesn't give a damn about maintaining them properly. The very few things that the city does have is being constantly ignored. They rather build more hotels that are constantly empty and overpriced apartments instead of building houses that people here actually want to buy. LA people move in because they ruined their own city, and now that Riverside is being ruined, natives are moving out to basically anywhere else
Our neighbor worked at Lily Tulip Cup. I was born and raised in Riverside. I, too, was a teenager growing up there. Went to a lot of concerts at the Swing Auditorium at the Orange Show Fairgrounds.
Very cool you covered Riverside. I moved here from LA back in 1983. I have a home downtown near the mission, and mount Rubidooux. It was built in 1910, and many of the homes close by date back to the late 1800’s. It is definitely changing for the better.
Ahhhh how neat! The older Victorian-esque homes are always the coolest! How fun to have one of those older homes too! Historic treasures, really. Thanks for watching, and so glad you enjoyed! ☺️
Another Riversider here. I am a docent at Heritage House, and we docents have done historical cosplay (1890s clothing) there for years before cosplay was much of a thing. There is a reservation system but walk-ins are welcome. As you said, open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays 12 noon to 3:15 when the last tour begins. The house is gorgeous! In October we will be having the house themed to be a place of mourning in an exhibit called "Behind the Veil". At Christmas we go all out for a Victorian Christmas with an open house day and music and activities The "catacombs" at the Mission Inn had various purposes but a main one was to funnel customers from the train stations a few blocks away to the inn out of the weather. The proprietor, Frank Miller, was known to get on the train from San Bernardino and talk riders into stopping in Riverside to stay at the Mission Inn. After many years of neglect late in the twentieth century the inn was rescued by a millionaire named Duane Roberts, retrofitted for earthquake safety and is now again a hub of Riverside. During Christmas time the whole building and grounds are lit up by the Festival of Lights with animatronic figures and thousands of lights. As was mentioned we now have a new main library, but the old library isn't going to waste. Actor and comedian Cheech Marin has housed his large collection of Chicano art in the revamped building, now known as the The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture or simply "The Cheech". We are so lucky! It is a vibrant place.
Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!😎✌🏼The giant cup was just so random, I had to share why it was there! History really has reasons behind everything lol 😂
This episode makes me smile so much. Riverside is my hometown. Moved away 10 years ago. I knew exactly where you were every segment ive been sll those places and sorry to say .. probably took it for granted. Riverside is an amazing town and i should have enjoyed it more.
Excellent video! My daughter went to school down their at UCR and has decided to stay in Riverside for obvious reasons one being somewhat more affordable than Palo Alto. I am a tad bit jealous of their new main library and all the other new stuff the city has added. It is unrecognizable from the last time I was there in 2010.
Originally the giant paper cup had the “sweetheart “ brand name on it. Thanks for doing the video. Riverside is a surprising place with some wonderful history.
You missed a beautiful park in Riverside called Fairmount Park and a nice amusement park with golf course called Castle Park very nice too for the whole family to enjoy.
Because of the topography of Riverside (Box Springs Mountains/Santa Ana River), the city has few ingress and egress (entering/exiting points) points! There is only Mission Boulevard, and the 60 Freeway to allow traffic to go due West toward Los Angeles or due East towards Palm Springs. And although the 91 Freeway does go West, it only does so after a slight bend South through Orange County. From the South West, there are only four ways in or out of Riverside. They are from Collett Avenue, the 91 Freeway, Magnolia Avenue, and Indiana Avenue. On the Eastern section of Riverside there are very few ingress and egress points as well. They are the 60 Freeway, the 215 Freeway, Box Springs Road, Eastridge Avenue, Alessandro Boulevard, Cactus Avenue, Van Buren Boulevard, Harley Knox Boulevard, and Cajalco Expressway! The only other ways in or out of Riverside are from either Arlington Avenue on the Central West portion of the city leading to Norco or from Van Buren Boulevard also near the Central Western approaches. Whatever the case, it appears that Riverside is in a de-facto "commuter spider web!" Traffic congestion will only increase if we cannot solve this problem! DS
OH WOW!! 😱 You know quite a lot about the interconnected street/highway web of Riverside!! Do you know all of this just from living in the area?? Thank you so much for sharing! Riverside’s streets really are a wonder…LOL😅
@@hoseysmoseys I drove a taxi for 14 years here. I worked for both Yellow Cab as well as Yellow Checker. When I first started in 2006 there were 4 cab companies competing against each other. Now there are none!

My hometown of Riverside yep when I was a kid in the '80s and a little bit of the '90s there was a tunnel open you will enter from the back of the hotel and you can go in the tunnel pretty far but it will take you to the rubidoux mountain but too many people found out and they closed them
That last post regarding ingress and egress points for Riverside was incomplete. I left out the North section of Riverside which only allows for 7 ways in or out. Those are Market Street, Main Street, Orange Street, West La Cadena, Iowa Avenue, and Mt. Vernon.
Thank you!!❤️And welcome to the USA! Hope you’re enjoying Southern California! Where are you from in Europe? ☺️ Europe is definitely full of fascinating places/history!
The street system of Riverside is unique as the main thoroughfares like Magnolia Avenue, California Avenues and others follow the contours of the Santa Ana River. Because of this most roads do not run true north or true south.
My hometown and you miss the alley at RCC where there was a murder that police thought was link to a well known serial killer know as the Zodiac Killer.The murder of Cheri Jo Bates occurred in Riverside, California, on October 30, 1966. Also, the corner of Arlington/Magnolia was a ballpark where the Anaheim Angeles played
The Mission Inn is one of my favorite places to go downtown! Great drinks at the bar and I always explore and find different hidden staircases and pathways that are so fun
I've lived in riverside all my life born and raised, along with my children and grandchild....... I watch it all go from dirt ,farmer, and all kind of animals..growing feeding off the land here in riverside... I could keeping 💯% going on n on about the history and the people who came by wagon, and how they sold 2 counrty songs that they wrote n song .. to the first of first albums record publisher in the beginning of the music industry, the 1940, ... will with that said, I injoyed see 👀 some one spreading the history of place where life begins.. God bless you 🙏.. I just run in to your video by chance.. awesome...
Thanks for video,born and raised,in Riverside I have been to every one of your sites,used to play in mission Inn as a kid back in the 60s as we walked to movie theater "s the Golden State ,The Fox ,the Deanza Theater,
The first Mexican house was built in Rubidoux. The area was named after him. That house stood where the stater brothers grocery store is on mission Blvd. He even fought in the Mexican American war.
There is an old Victorian house off the 91 freeway at 14 st. So north of the 91 and west of 14th. It was moved there by the city to save it from demo. Also check out if not the Fox Theater and down the street is a eclectic restaurant your camera will love the place.
Sooooooo much uou missed while downtown...The Fox theater, Tio's Tacos resturant has ALOT of home made folk art, the old library next to the Mission Inn is the Cheech Marin Museum of Hispanic Folk Art, the Citrus museum...
So many things I didn't know about the city I grew up in, and in just the downtown area. There's a whole lot more you didn't get to, though not quite as historical. I didn't even know about the World's Largest Paper Cup until about a few months ago when I started driving past it on my way to work 😅
Moved there from Bloomington around 1954 my parents bought a brand new 3 bdrm 2 bath ranch for around $16,000. Its still there. I wonder how much it is now..
@Hosey's Moseys I'm no sure honestly I was driving on the freeway. I don't even remember the freeway I was driving to San Francisco from riverside, ca .. it was like 3 years a go.
Oh I know! 😩 I actually had Mt. Rubidoux planned, but it ended up not working out with the time I had while in Riverside. 😭 Thanks for watching, and let’s keep moseyin’! 😎✌🏼

@@Natalie-hg9vt not to mention everyone from LA is moving here and buying out all the housing. Now everything from homes to apartments has skyrocketed from 700$ to well over 1800$.

You’re being a little dramatic with the “every corner” comment but as a whole, those problems exist in most non-affluent cities in Southern California.
Oh cool!! I remember when I was younger, the cup was completely painted differently, but never realized it was a fountain! Do you know when it stopped working?☺️
I am now 62 years of youthfulness. In my life I do not recall a fountain ever atop of the giant cup on Iowa avenue! The same goes for my siblings! WTF?
Riverside City and County sits on top on an Ancient Moorish Civilization, Ancient Egyptian/Atlantis Civilization...Dark Skin Swarthy Wooly Hair People, The True Asiatics, The Olmec, Washitaw Muurs. Queen Califia. Our Land was stolen by European Colonizers who raped The Moors/Muurs and Mongolians Asians who were already here, creating your modern day Indians. The Original American Indians are Muurs/Moors. The Advanced Moorish Architecture is all throughout Riverside. The Names of The Cities are Moorish, Islamic, Egyptian names. The Moors already built Advanced Civilizations and Cities all throughout The Americas before European Colonizers arrived, The European Colonizers burnt down our buildings, and the buildings they ddint destroy they simply Claimed and Re-furbished, then Lied about History and told His-Story through the Mind and Eyes of European Colonizers. The modern day Native Americans who claim to be American Indians are actually Mongolians from Asia, who mixed in with The Dark Skin Wooly Hair people of The Americas who were already on the land, as The Modern Day Native Americans DID NOT build STONE MASONRY as The MOORS. The Spanish all came with Moors, as most Europeans could not read or write at the time. History has been told through a racist European and racist Latin point of View. The Truth is Mission Inn was already there and was refurbished by Europeans who recenly invaded America after defeating The Moors in Europe and kidnapping Moors Maps to eventually find and invade Lemuria aka Atlantis aka TA-MERI aka A-MOOR-RA-KA aka A-Muur-Re-K aka AMURUKA...Land of The Plum Serpent People! America is Atlantis, we left Ancient America and built Ancient Nubia, Kush, Egypt, Heru/Peru, America is Egypt of The West. Built by Muurs/Moors the true American Indians. We were already here and did not come as Slaves from African via Europeans, as The 1st Slaves brought to America are Hybrid Pale Skin Europeans. Riverside, CA is an Ancient Moorish Civilization, with Underground Tunnels all through The City, as Moors built underground.
lol exactly! Some ppl are so blind to their surroundings or it doesn’t bother them to see humans in a drug endured coma laying in their own filth on the sidewalk
It used to be where they manufactured Dixie cups you know the little paper cups you put in the bathroom. that’s a giant Dixie cup I live down to the same neighborhood. It’s right there next to Highgrove. I live in grand Terrace..

My brother worked at Lily Tulip back in the 70's.He would always bring home over runs and damaged tubes of all kinds of paper cups.

Never seen the cup before and Ive lived in riverside for the past 15 years hah.
HAHAHA well, I guess, the more you know!👐🏻🌈😂*inserts rainbow spongebob meme*
I live off of the 91 n Madison
The cup was a fountain. Water poured over the top for years.
Oh cool!! I remember when I was younger, the cup was completely painted differently, but never realized it was a fountain! Do you know when it stopped working?☺️
@@hoseysmoseys maybe some time in the 80’s. I’m not really sure. I do remember taking a tour of the factory when I was a kid. Waaaaay back when.
I am now 62 years of youthfulness. In my life I do not recall a fountain ever atop of the giant cup on Iowa avenue! The same goes for my siblings! WTF?
its on iowa avenue., just down the street from highgrove. i had a friend who worked there.
@@1MahaDas I'm not aware of a fountain in the cup either... and my grandad helped build it!
that's the answer.

Riverside City and County sits on top on an Ancient Moorish Civilization, Ancient Egyptian/Atlantis Civilization...Dark Skin Swarthy Wooly Hair People, The True Asiatics, The Olmec, Washitaw Muurs. Queen Califia. Our Land was stolen by European Colonizers who raped The Moors/Muurs and Mongolians Asians who were already here, creating your modern day Indians. The Original American Indians are Muurs/Moors. The Advanced Moorish Architecture is all throughout Riverside. The Names of The Cities are Moorish, Islamic, Egyptian names. The Moors already built Advanced Civilizations and Cities all throughout The Americas before European Colonizers arrived, The European Colonizers burnt down our buildings, and the buildings they ddint destroy they simply Claimed and Re-furbished, then Lied about History and told His-Story through the Mind and Eyes of European Colonizers. The modern day Native Americans who claim to be American Indians are actually Mongolians from Asia, who mixed in with The Dark Skin Wooly Hair people of The Americas who were already on the land, as The Modern Day Native Americans DID NOT build STONE MASONRY as The MOORS. The Spanish all came with Moors, as most Europeans could not read or write at the time. History has been told through a racist European and racist Latin point of View. The Truth is Mission Inn was already there and was refurbished by Europeans who recenly invaded America after defeating The Moors in Europe and kidnapping Moors Maps to eventually find and invade Lemuria aka Atlantis aka TA-MERI aka A-MOOR-RA-KA aka A-Muur-Re-K aka AMURUKA...Land of The Plum Serpent People! America is Atlantis, we left Ancient America and built Ancient Nubia, Kush, Egypt, Heru/Peru, America is Egypt of The West. Built by Muurs/Moors the true American Indians. We were already here and did not come as Slaves from African via Europeans, as The 1st Slaves brought to America are Hybrid Pale Skin Europeans. Riverside, CA is an Ancient Moorish Civilization, with Underground Tunnels all through The City, as Moors built underground.
Way to crowded now .
It is a very beautiful city. Is there anyone who can help me with a work contract in this city??, Thank you
I guess riverside is a nice city once you pass your neighbors selling drugs, and having homeless living outside your house.
lol exactly! Some ppl are so blind to their surroundings or it doesn’t bother them to see humans in a drug endured coma laying in their own filth on the sidewalk
It used to be where they manufactured Dixie cups you know the little paper cups you put in the bathroom. that’s a giant Dixie cup I live down to the same neighborhood. It’s right there next to Highgrove. I live in grand Terrace..
