I recently visited a friend, who was staying in a loft downtown, and took some pictures to show both the downtown skyline, as well as the character and details that was put into the older buildings. They sure don't make them like they used to right? It is great to see a new area of Los Angeles developing with new residential, retail, and goods & service. It's been discussed for so long, that it is nice to finally see the vision coming to fruition.
