Gentrification in Downtown Los Angeles

To balance my earlier post about the homeless on Skid Row, I thought I'd put this up.  Architectural Critic for the LA Times, Christopher Hawthorne, discusses how the economic climate has slowed the "gentrification" of downtown Los Angeles.  Interesting point of view.


Also, if you're ever in the area go to the restaurant showcased in the photo.  Bottega Louie is a delightful little French fusion bistro.  It also had a crack team of engineers that designed the project.  (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
