Not since Snoop Dogg has a single man put Long Beach on the map the way West Coast Choppers owner Jesse James has. Now, the motorcycle builder is getting a bit of local recognition.

The Long Beach City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to rename a small section of Oregon Avenue between Anaheim and 12th streets as West Coast Choppers Place to honor the business, which is featured with James on the new show, "Jesse James is a Dead Man." Check out the video clip below about the show, in case you've never tuned in.
