"Renaissance" is the word that best describes Downtown Los Angeles today, as one of the world's largest metropolitan areas returns to its political, economic and cultural center.

As the largest county and the second largest city in the nation, Downtown Los Angeles is one of the most significant political centers in the country. And with its impressive skyline, it is also a key economic icon... locally, nationally, and internationally. The Downtown Los Angeles office market boasts 31 million square feet of office space and is centered between the two most dynamic office markets in the country - the West Los Angeles and Tri-Cities markets.

However, what is most exciting about Downtown Los Angeles is its future. The addition of The Disney Concert Hall, the Staples Center and a new residential community marks the beginning of Downtown Los Angeles as the true cultural center of the region, but of greater importance are the opportunities that stem from these milestones: a regional shopping venue, and the establishment as the hub of mass transportation to overcome the congestion that plagues the rest of the city and its suburbs. Additionally, Los Angeles boasts an array of ethic neighborhoods such as Chinatown, Little Tokyo, Little Armenia, Thai Town, Koreatown, Fairfax District, Leimert Park, and Little India.
