ask and ye shall receive.
actually, when I see all the effort of forumers to take update pics of dt, inc the recent ones from blackcat, pinkfloyd & boycott, &, before that, from hunterk & mojeda, etc, I feel the least I can do is add some overview maps of what's going on in the various parts of dt. I also want these images to remind ppl, certainly the ones who go

cuz a new proj isn't taller or isn't to their tastes....& imply that's a lost opportunity that will long hurt the hood's urban potential....that there are still many, many, many, many more pieces of land throughout dt in great need of TLC.
btw, apex is the name of what was formerly the concerto tower at 9th & fig.
these don't include conversion projs, or rehabs of older bldgs, or smaller new projs, or new stores/restaurants....which are
very important in their own right....or totally new projs that may be even more pie in the sky than a few of the ones I've already included. these are all from skycam images at maps.google.com...

^ dtla has come a long way, but the large number of properties that remain untouched & continue to need new devlpt or renovation....such as the clark hotel....must represent several decades worth of future ongoing changes. It would be welcome if that all occurs sooner rather than later. But to be as realistic as possible, many necessary new devlpt or clean up projs probably won't finally happen til around, as one example, 2030 or later. of course, I hope I'm being too cautious & that certain things will happen that greatly speed up the process.
fwiw, I thought the following should be added to this post....the footprint of the new apt proj going up on Fig across from the convention ctr on figueroa is surprisingly modest. That didn't stand out to me til I was working my little paint program trying to figure out the boundaries of the avant devlpt. by contrast, I suddenly realized I made the footprint of the santa fe proj in the arts dist way too large....made it stretch for like a hundred miles long.

also, this is the first time I've ever known of a woman who has the first name of 'randy'.
