Downtown Revitalization

Abstract In most cities the downtown area is usually referred to as the heart of the city. And in Los Angeles the downtown area can be described as such. But just like a human being with a serious case of a Cardiovascular disease is the same fate of Downtown Los Angeles. Here in this case, instead of cholesterol clogging up the arteries and veins, we have homeless people and rundown building clogging up the streets of Downtown Los Angeles. However, just like a heart patient that requires an open heart surgery, so is Downtown Los Angeles whose version of this is called the “Revitalization of Downtown Los Angeles”.
Our Downtown To all of us Downtown Los Angeles serves a different purpose and signifies a different mean. Downtown Los Angeles can be described as the converging point for everything in the great county of Los Angeles and neighbor counties. The place where affluence meets poverty, where Business romances with Pleasure, and the point where education cross-sects with fashion, need I say more about this intriguing place called Downtown Los Angeles. Downtown Los Angeles is the central business district in Los Angeles, and is interesting located relatively in the center of Los Angeles. It plays host to most of the major arts institutions and Sports arenas and facilities, sightseeing opportunities, numerous skyscrapers and various multinational corporations and a plethora of public art and different shopping opportunities. The converging point of county’s public transport system and freeway network is Downtown Los Angeles. The importance of Downtown Los Angeles to the residents of the Los Angeles county area cannot be over emphasized. The various sections/districts of downtown serve different functions to the residents. Some such locations are: • Arts District • Fashion District • Jewelry District

• Toy District

• Warehouse District • Alpine Park (Chinatown) • Angels Knoll Park • Biddy Mason
