Brick is a popular element of the loft style for historic live/work apartment and condo buildings in Downtown Los Angeles. One notable apartment building is named Brick Lofts, in the Arts District. Other nearby buildings with lofts and condos for lease and for sale feature exposed brick. Some of these historic loft condominium units offer substantial savings on property taxes thanks to the Mills Act. Here are links to lists of available units:
Mothers and children face too many dangers in Los Angeles neighborhoods.
REAL ESTATE NEWS — Los Angeles, CA
Women and children have been swept under the rug in L.A. They cannot safely walk on the sidewalks, nor can they ride a bicycle in too many parts of Los Angeles in 2021. Mothers and their children have unfairly born the brunt of defunding police, virus hysteria, media hype and lockdown atrocities. Moms and their babies are being wiped out economically.
The fallout from the virus panic and outrageous lockdown has been disastrous for women. Millions of women worldwide have been disproportionately affected by job losses, with many more left reeling from massive disruptions to childcare and education. Globally, women lost at least $800 billion in income last year, according to a new report from Oxfam International. The impact on women’s mental health is just as atrocious.
There was a time when my mother walked hand in hand with her mother, along the sidewalks of Downtown Los Angeles. They could enjoy eating at Clifton’s Cafeteria, then taking the electric streetcar back home. Those times are gone. Today, mothers no longer feel safe, and it is not practical to walk down sidewalks of Downtown L.A., as many of the sidewalks are totally blocked, forcing mothers and kids to walk in the street. Otherwise, the mothers must face unstable mentally ill substance abusers trippin’ out hardcore, sometimes in unpredictable violent rages. This is not a position that any mother or child should ever be forced to confront when trying to walk or shop in LA or anywhere.
Until mothers, daughters and sons can walk in this city in peace, safety and cleanliness, no citizens of the city center can take pride in our home. A Downtown that is devoid of mothers is a neighborhood starved of love. We have the ability to become a world-renown, respectable destination. We can do it. As soon as Angelenos face the truth, then take the required action to clean up the encampments, refuse, needles and human waste, we will then be able to look at ourselves in the mirror, and know that we have finally made the grade — safe mothers and children are the litmus test of a good city.
