When it comes to furnishing a loft, there is no right way, and no wrong way. The loft way provides for the fullest range of possibilities.

NEW LOFTS
New Downtowners and investors love it when old historic and industrial buildings are converted from useless dilapidated structures into repurposed residential live/work lofts with open space, lots of oversized windows and natural light, in the best walking areas near shopping, dining, entertainment and transportation. From 2000 to 2014, more than 20 buildings were converted. But in the last 3 years, there have been only modern construction condos, along with thousands of new apartment rentals not available for purchase. The good news is that this trend is changing.
The most recent loft conversion was Barker Block Warehouse One in the Arts District of Downtown Los Angeles. That was more than 3 years ago.
