In 1911, Victoria asked her father to buy her a luxury Hupp-Yeats electric car in order to take Louis on short drives.
[2] Wilson led a reclusive life with her birds at the mansion on Courtney Street where she had been raised until her death in 1949 at the age of seventy-two.
[3][1][4][5] Life magazine featured a one-page article on Louis in the August 9, 1963 issue, titled "The Old Bird Won't Sell".
Sackett reported that “Louis callously recovered from the pain of his mistress’s passing and, to Abrams’s rueful astonishment, seemed to take a new lease on life” in Mr. Wong's care.
Louis' relocation allowed the Wilson property be developed as the Chauteau Victoria hotel in 1975, with a restaurant called the Parrot House on the top floor (later renamed "Vista 18").
