Downtown Living

Living in downtown Los Angeles puts the world at your fingertips. From eclectic restaurants to renowned museums, downtown truly is the cultural hub of Los Angeles.

Everyday living is easy is in downtown Los Angeles. Need to make a quick shopping excursion? Head to 7 +Fig, Macy’s Plaza or the Jewelry District for large department stores or one-of-a-kind gifts. Need flowers? The Flower District is the largest flower market in the U.S. and is an exhilarating shopping experience that can’t be duplicated.

If art is your passion, downtown has everything from contemporary to historical museums. Offerings include: Natural History Museum, Japanese American National Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art. The Art Walk in Gallery Row is also held the second Thursday of every month. Performing art venues include the LA Philharmonic, LA Opera, Walt Disney Concert Hall and The Colburn School Conservancy of Music.

If culinary exploration is what you crave, downtown possess a taste from every town. The more than 200 eateries include Phillippe The Original offering its world famous French dipped sandwiches, Ciudad with unrivaled Latin tapas and sangria, Traxx’s Asian- and Italian-influenced American cuisine, steakhouses including The Palm, Nick & Stef’s and Arnie Morton’s and the innovative Hawaiian fusion cuisine of Roy’s. To satisfy that pizza hankering, head to Pitfire Pizza in the Historic Core. Looking for something out of the ordinary? Try Grand Central Market or the Farmer’s Market, held every Wednesday. If you’re looking to grab a drink after work, The Golden Gopher, The Edison, Rooftop Bar at The Standard or poolside at Hotel Figueroa will always have something to wet your whistle.

Afraid to leave Sparky at home alone? SkyBark, a rooftop dog and human lounge, offers an event location that is more than pet friendly, it is pet welcoming. Enjoy a cosmo as your puppy mingles with other urban dogs. Or for a more traditional routine, Elysian Park provides plenty of room for the energetic dog.

From Laker Games at Staples Center to dinner at Sushi Gen in Little Tokyo to free concerts at Grand Plaza, downtown has something for everyone, and with the opening of LA Live! and the new Ralphs supermarket, there’s no reason not to live in downtown.
