A homeless man who turned a freeway underpass into personal paradise by furnishing it with a make-shift jacuzzi and four-poster bed has become a viral hit. Ceola Waddell Jr, 59, began living in the underpass in L.A.'s 110 freeway near Coliseum six months ago.In a virtual tour posted to FB, the cheery vagrant described the spot as Paradise Lane. "This here is my jacuzzi, it holds 10 gallons of water. All it is is a refrigerator on its bottom. I'm being innovative,' he said in the clip. In his 'guest room', another bed, 'jacuzzi' and toilet could be found. Waddell rents out his spare room and a tent for $25 a week to other homeless people in the area.
