The burgeoning business district of downtown Los Angeles has experienced a significant influx dating back to the opening of the Staples Center and several other hubs of entertainment centers. The area once known for not much beyond a business district, has become a major area of entertainment venues and new high-rise luxury condominiums. It features the Nokia Plaza, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, the Mark Taper Forum, the Museum of Contemporary Art (as well as other art galleries), and fine restaurants in the revitalized cosmopolitan hot spot.
