I think the Regional Connector will change the perception and ease of working in downtown LA. With that connector, trains will be coming through downtown from East, Southwest, Northeast and South so employees will have much easier access into the downtown core. More of them will be interested in working in downtown, thus companies who want good talent will start opening up offices where employees want to be. Hopefully their CEO's will get some pent houses in downtown, which will furthur drive more corporations to be HQ'd in downtown.
Downtown LA will never be the financial center as San Francisco, but we are the Entertainment Capital of the World and centralizing some production offices in the downtown core (while keeping the studious in other districts or suburbs) would be a great perception for downtown.
By the way, did anybody notice that pwc (the #1 largest accounting firm) put up their logo on the crystal square (i.e. the green lighted building at night...not Eastern Columbia) over the last week? Looks nice to see more companies with logos on top of buildings.
