Tower of Power: At 55 feet tall and painted bright red, the Japanese Village Plaza Fire Tower is one of the most notable structures in Little Tokyo. But it has been chewed up by termites. Now, plans are underway to replace the 30-year-old landmark with a metal replica; it is slated to be finished in time for the summer’s Nisei Week celebration. American Commercial Equities, owner of the JVP, is undertaking the $500,000 project as part of their renovation of the plaza.
First Things First: The Hewitt First Lofts in the Arts District has been delayed since September while developer Mika Realty Group completes what it refers to as “construction details” on the 33-unit project. When it opens, the development at 120-130 Hewitt St. will continue the residential growth of the neighborhood by transforming a 1936 and a 1948 structure into 800-2,500-square-foot condominiums. It will increase street life and help improve connections to Little Tokyo.

Downtown Has Events and Attractions for All Ages

DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES - Downtown is not a community built for families. However, as the residential population rises, the number of entertainment options for parents with children is also increasing. Here are five 2010 events or attractions that can make Downtown a fun place for people of all ages.
Pet the Doggy: For an outing that involves the whole family, including the hairiest, four-legged kid, nothing beats Dog Day Afternoon. The event at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels takes place July 27 and is an opportunity to let adults, kids and canines mix and mingle. There will be pet service booths, food and even doggy-themed music. Last year’s event attracted more than 1,000 living creatures (between humans and dogs).
Spooky Fun: There are limited options for trick or treating in Downtown — after all, who wants to go door-to-door asking for candy in a high-rise? Thus, the Downtown Center Business Improvement District launched the Halloween Party for Downtown L.A. Kids. The event at Grand Hope Park in South Park will take place Oct. 31, and hundreds of children (and many adults) will show up in costume. Along with candy, there are pumpkin carving contests and bounce houses.
