Downtown Los Angeles News (DTNews) just recapped the truly mega number of commercial developments underway or in planning stages for downtown for a total of 94 today with 14 of those added since late spring.

Plans are for at least 3,000 new residential units, Condos and apartments, in just the 14 new projects announced since May 2014. Additionally, 420,000 square feet of Los Angeles net leased retail and polished casual restaurant space is underway in just the 14 new projects.

Downtown LA has long needed street level triple net retail space plus fast and polished casual restaurants to support the rapid gentrification of downtown south and the Arts District. They are getting it and at a much faster pass than I thought possible.

I’m going to link to the update in Downtown News instead of doing the summary myself.

The new projects reviewed are:
