The apartment itself is quite nice - very large, and the ceilings here are 14 ft. I wasn't here to witness the transformation, of course, but downtown L.A. seems to have made quite a rebound, based on what people tell me. I've only been here for about four weeks now. There are condos and loft apartments going up everywhere - too bad, because the market seems oversaturated. Also, they should stop building apartments and start building things like grocery stores.
A couple of the loft buildings I saw had great apartments, but the buildings themselves still have the "factory" feel to them - hard to describe, but you'd know what I mean when you walk throught the halls. Very big spaces - very warehouse like.
BUT very expensive. 2 BR loft apartments will run approx. $2,400. Some as high as $2,800.
I am only here until the late Spring, and off to Canyon Country I go - likely Valencia or Stevenson's Ranch. Cheaper, nicer, and more picaresque.
