The Fashion District | Downtown Los Angeles Lofts For Sale
The Fashion District Downtown Los Angeles lofts for sale. The area is a bustling, chaotic, and creative world capturing the essence of what DTLA is all about. Originally known as the Garment District, the area began developing in the 1920s with the construction of the Cooper Building in 1928 on the corner of Los Angeles and 9th streets. It was primarily European immigrants who relocated their garment manufacturing businesses in the area. Their evolution of the Garment District would include retailing in addition to manufacturing and wholesale sales. It began in Santee Alley, which locals enjoy to this date. The alley serviced the back doors of manufacturing and wholesale businesses via retail outlets a couple of days a week. These retail operations grew into full-time businesses turning the District into the LA Fashion Industry’s retail and wholesale mecca that it is today!
A Look At The Fashion District Today
Today The Fashion District is perhaps the fastest-growing district downtown. The area is from 7th St. to 12th and from Los Angeles St. moving east to Alameda. Santee Village has anchored the residential housing aspect for over a decade. The “Village” is a mixture of 5 buildings with The Cornell, The Eckardt, and the Textile leading way. An artistic courtyard is featured in the complex with eateries, a fitness center, and a NY-style Bodega for its residents to enjoy. The district features one of downtown’s most sought-after restaurants in Rossoblu and for quick casual Mexican food, try getting in line at Sonoratown! If the old Cooper Bldg was the past then there is no doubt that City Market South is the future.
City Market South
The 75,000sf City Market South site on nearly 2 1/2 acres near 11th & San Julian. The area is a mix of vintage brick & bow truss warehouses and open plan concrete structures were part of the oldest produce market in Los Angeles, owned and operated by The City Market of L.A since 1909. Downtown developer LENA Group birthed the vision for City Market South as a destination for dining, entertainment and creative businesses. The project is underway and already taking it’s rightful place among DTLA’s top restaurants is Rossoblu where Chef Steve Samson’s Italian creation has been turning heads. City Market South is breathing new life into the oldest wholesale produce market in Los Angeles, bringing world-class dining, cocktails, retail and creative office space to distinct buildings that all surround an open central plaza.The future is certainly bright for The Fashion District
