Downtown

There is much more than meets the eye in Downtown Los Angeles’s concrete jungle of skyscrapers.

Welcome to Downtown

There is much more than meets the eye in Downtown Los Angeles’s concrete jungle of skyscrapers, sky-high buildings, and historic art. With L.A. Live, the L.A. Convention Center and USC centered in the heart of Downtown, new construction is turning this metropolitan neighborhood into one of the hippest and happening places in the city. With a steady stream of innovative chefs, art goers, business professionals, and more, Downtown is changing at a lightning fast past.

For food lovers and adventurous eaters, this is the place to be! Top restaurants such as Bestia, Otium, Bavel, and Redbird, are located in the epicenter of Downtown Los Angeles. Warehouses have been converted to ultra-modern open lofts, and new condominium complexes are popping up all over. A place where historic Los Angeles is blending with the new, the diversity of Downtown is attracting a new generation of residents, from Little Tokyo to the Fashion District to the Arts District.
