  • Regionl Connector Transit Corridor Draft DEIS/DEIR
    Regional Connector Transit Corridor Cultural Resources – Built Environment Technical Memorandum were designed to legally and financially assist cities to address problems of decay and neglect within their communities. In response to this new legislation, the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles (CRA) was established in 1948, in part to cure economic "blight" by funding and overseeing redevelopment. As its first major project, the CRA sought to improve the Bunker Hill area, which had been one of the more exclusive residential neighborhoods at the turn of the twentieth century but had deteriorated and fallen out of fashion. Despite many proposals, plans to redevelop Bunker Hill were rejected, and ultimately not begun until the 1960s, when large hotels and Victorian-era homes were bulldozed and the landforms were rearranged. Slowly, over the past 50 years, a community of high-rises has been constructed in their place (Kawaratani 2008). When the Harbor Freeway (Interstate-110) was completed in 1952, it was hopefully called “downtown’s new Main Street” by noted local architect A. C. Martin, Jr. (Los Angeles Times 1967). Construction of the freeway and the repeal of the building height ordinance in 1954 created a significant new concentration of high- and midrise buildings, eventually concentrated on Figueroa and 7th Streets. The downtown civic center began to take shape in the post-war era. As discussed in California: A Land of Contrast: Business blocks of the late nineteenth century have been replaced by the Civic Center, whose buildings, most of contemporary design, are flanked by multi-acre parking lots. The Civic Center has encroached westward upon Bunker Hill, once occupied by the city’s wealthier residents and now experiencing impressive [redevelopment] (Lantis, et al.

  • WPSA Dining in Los Angeles FINAL
    W E S T E R N P O L I T I C A L S C I E N C E A S S O C I A T I O N 2 0 2 0 Dining in Los Angeles A S C O M P I L E D B Y M I C H A E L " S O H I P I T H U R T S " G E N O V E S E Wolfgang Puck claims Los Angeles is the best restaurant city in the world. High praise, in fact, too high. But hyperbole aside, LA truly is a GREAT and amazingly diverse restaurant city, and many of the top restaurants are in the downtown area. Olvera Street If you have a few hours, I suggest a walk to the Union Station (800 N. Alameda St.) and stroll through the magnificent building, then walk a block north to Olvera Street for some old LA and see the roots of this great city (many shops selling Mexican goods and gifts to bring home to the family), then a short walk to the Italian American Museum (644 N. Main St.) to see what is on exhibit (everything is one or two blocks away from this town). End your adventure at Philippe The Original (1001 N. Alameda St) for old LA. The restaurant dates back to 1908 and is where the French Dip Beef Sandwich was invented! Great diner-type food but you must try the French Dip Beef Sandwich (ask for a double- dip, which means both sides of the bun are dipped in the beef au jus).

FIGUEROA STREET A postmodern mixed-use property bordered by Seventh and Figueroa streets The building consists of 12,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space—below a 283,000 SF Class A Office —including significant frontage feet of coveted frontage on major thoroughfare Figueroa. Figueroa Tower’s beautiful exterior combines the characteristics of traditional French architecture with the sleek verticality of a modern high-rise. These attributes, together with its location at the center of the Figueroa Financial Corridor, offer an aesthetic experience unlike any retail destination in all of Los Angeles. This corridor was solidified abuilding in California, the Wilshire Grand Center, opened directly across the street. This prestigious location boasts a high pedestrian volume and an unparalleled daily traffic count of 30,000. Such volume is thanks in part to being just steps away from retail supercenter FIGat7th, as well as sitting immediately above Seventh Street Metro Center Station, the busiest subway station in Los Angeles by far. Figueroa Tower also benefits from ongoing improvements to Downtown Los Angeles, which is currently undergoing its largest construction boom since the 1920s. In the last decade alone, 42 developments of at least 50,000 square feet have been built and 37 projects are under construction. This renaissance of development has reignited the once-sleepy downtown area into a sprawling metropolis of urban residential lofts and diverse retail destinations.

The Future of Historic Preservation in Blighted Areas: Effects of the Abolishment of Redevelopment Agencies in California Abstract Redevelopment agencies play a major role in the preservation or destruction of historic buildings. When considering the benefits of preservation, we not only consider the protection of buildings for history's sake; but its usage has become more evident as a form of economic growth. During 2011, in efforts to balance the budget in the state of California, Governor Brown proposed abolishing

  • A Guide to Historic Santa Monica City Hall
    A G U I D E T O Historic Santa Monica City Hall The city seal, measuring 79 inches in diameter, was created with the same “Petrachrome” method and a palette of colors, textures and elements similar to those used in the Macdonald-Wright murals. Encircled by the words, “City of Santa Monica, California. Founded 1875,” the seal features a mermaid and Spanish galleon on the bay, with sun, mountains, clouds and airplanes behind. A ribbon near the base of the seal carries the city’s motto, Populus Felix en Urbe Felice, translated from the Latin as “Fortunate People in a Fortunate Land.” The seal is inlaid in the center of the foyer floor, surrounded by color tiles that run along the east-west axis of the foyer and halls. A serrated pattern of yellow triangles running against a brown field, bordered by black stripes, echoes the chevron pattern on the tiled wainscoting found nearby. T he Overview With a nautical quality befitting its seaside locale, Santa Monica City Hall reflects the character of its surroundings, making it a civic building truly connected to its constituency. Designed by two prominent Los Angeles architects, it is rec- ognized as an outstanding example of the Public Works Administration (PWA) Moderne style of architecture popularized by Depression-era architects.
