Another small attraction in DTLA. All pieces in the puzzle.

"Dataland, the world’s first AI arts museum, will anchor the Grand complex in downtown L.A."

Let me be clear...I know ESPN is already at LA Live. I am saying companies that are similar.

To me, this means The Grand is having a terribly difficult time finding commercial tenants. These fly by night museums are pretty bottom of the barrel tenants that likely won't last very long. The whole development still looked to be almost completely vacant at street level when I drove by a couple weeks ago, so this doesn't surprise me.

There's plenty of daytime workers and judicial court visitors to sustain restaurants and cafes, so the rent must be too damn high.

Wrong thread.

Bad news about Times building. Looks like they are just going to lease it out instead.

How tragic. One of the best projects in the city reduced to that.

When was this site updated? The timing of starting the tower was based on refinancing. This could be valid or it’s just what’s been ok this site for quite some time.

Wasn't that always Onnis plan? To rent out Times North, Times South and the plant building? while construction went on? Now the headscratcher is Times West. BUT. Seeing how their Arts District plans seem to be getting updated and etc. lately. I can see them starting that project first and then coming back to this once the market feels right to them, it would be easy to move the tenants from Times West into other parts of the other buildings when construction starts.

Yeah, there has been a lot of speculation on and off the forum that Onni's next project will be in the Arts District.

I just drove past the LA Times bldg. today and there was a homeless encampment stretching the entire block across 1st St. Is the city park on that site completely dead? As someone else wrote-has this convinced Omni into delay or downsize to the newer plan? Makes me sad. It's just a game changing plan for the entire area including the north end of forlorn Broadway.
