The lofts that we have seen in LA are pretty wonderful. We helped a client who bought a loft in the Toy Factory downtown, and it was very cool.
It is slow for sure, but the LA downtown scene is really starting to come alive.
"In New York, London, and even Rio de Janeiro, lofts are synonymous with minimalism. But in Los Angeles, the world's dream factory, lofts are as colorful and creative as the city itself. L.A. Lofts showcases 20 original and enigmatic interiors housed in both converted warehouse spaces and newly constructed sites in upscale neighborhoods. The common denominator? Each is a reflection of the owner's idiosyncratic personal style."

Any thoughts, though, on how they're impacting the city's transient/homeless population?
