DL Malibu residents, visitors etc anyone familiar with their highway tunnels?

There was a recording artist and producer named Tony LeMans (affiliated with Prince and others) who died in 1992 in a motorcycle accident. They said it was in "the Holland Tunnel". When I looked that up, I found there is no Holland Tunnel in Malibu or California for that matter. I see there is a Malibu Canyon Tunnel, Kanan Dume Road Tunnel and then a nearby Sepulveda Pass Tunnel.

Do you have any clue about a possible Holland Tunnel, maybe it was renamed? Or it's more likely the name is wrong and LeMans would have died in 1 of the 3 I mentioned earlier?

Are you sure he died in CA? The Holland Tunnel is in NYC.

Isn't it in New York, OP?

I have driven through the Holland Tunnel on my way to Jersey.

The Holland Tunnel is not in Malibu.

Perhaps they meant the tunnel under Mulholland?

Yes that's why I was confused as I know the Holland Tunnel in NY

R4 OK that makes sense. I see Mulholland is right near Sepulveda Pass

But OP you read Leans Wiki page, and it says he died in the Holland Tunnel in Malibu. I suppose that is when you got very confused.

"LeMans, an avid motorcyclist, (he loved Harley-Davidson) died in an accident while driving through the Holland tunnel in Malibu, California on June 24, 1992. He was to be married the next day to Deborah Matthews, Vanity's sister.[2]"
