Not a resident but do get downtown to visit clients....I hate every trip.....
Of course, LA is not as bad as San Francisco, but LA might be catching up.

DTLA goes up and down every 8-9 years. People who buy in downtown are not there for short term, but the long term.
I know a former minimum wage coworker/artist of mine who bought in the ‘hood when it was bad. He worked hard to clean up the block and 12 years later he has two gallery spaces in the new arts district. So the potential is there if you want to work it.
Nothing in life easy. DTLA just helps take away the delusion of an easy life.

No delusions
Not an easy life but when you work hard have a vision then all the good things gravitate to you $$$
Not a hard formula to figure out
Like your gallery friend I hope

LA has always been a disaster for me, so I can't imagine what it'd be like now between the virus and the riots. Defo will take a long time to recover.

Not sure if you will ever get DTLA workers back in those buildings
I don’t think I would. Nothing to do with Corona V
So that could mean the end of the DTLA renaissance

The only thing DTLA has that I want is Phillippe's.

Let me get this straight. Millennials pushed skid row out of skid row and now skid row is taking back skid row? I'm sure the Millennials will be back.

Congratulations LA. You made the IE look like a better place to live. That’s a hard feat you pulled off there. Very impressive.

Dont worry about buying opportunities. A big crash is coming soon on residential properties and retail commercial properties.
With all the default on mortgage notes and loan mo hikes, it smells like 2007 again. Even with the cheap cash and drop of the dollar value wont supplant the type of loss in biz opportunities and jobs in white collar sector.
With almost no chinese money coming in, LA real properties value wont last.
Just hoard cash and get ready.

Phillippe's is soo good, maybe I'll venture out there tomorrow or Wed when I go to the Petersen
Museum. James Hetfield's Cars are there.

I drove along San Pedro St, a few times in the past two months to pick up
Chinese food from Paul's Kitchen. Many of the homeless are there between
4th St and 6th St. That area is called Skid Row.
Hundreds of homeless people not social distancing or wearing masks.
Yet Garcetti, threatens residents who don't wear masks in public.

The homeless operate outside of normal standards. How can you impose masks and social distancing to people that take dumps on the sidewalk and use cardboard to wipe? How do you impose sanitation when they wash their hands once or twice a day at most. Just discount them from following all normal health codes. It is unfortunate but you have to be realistic. They have so many other more pressing issues to deal with daily than corona.
what if ...
Catalina island sucks. We should just get a barge and throw all the homeless on it, drop them off in Avalon and Catalina and tell them to have a good time, we'll be back to check on them in 6 mo.
They'll figure something out and we get our sidewalks, freeway exits and parks back. They can figure out how to take buffalo down to eat.

I do not think "jump the shark" means what you think it means!
|

Wait till a rainy day, you will see bags of shit and needles float out from the bushes where people sleep and get high.

"The stench, the homeless, the mentally ill"
Wait, is this blog about GoBallsDeep or Lowlife.bj?
