DTLA has seen a flurry of from-the-future structures in recent years, those buildings that push various architectural envelopes, and arrive at something exciting and new via their inventive approaches to design, interior flair, and purpose.
At the forefront of this eye-catching pack is the structure that debuted at the corner of Grand Avenue and West 1st Street in October 2003: We're talking about Walt Disney Concert Hall, of course, architect Frank Gehry's silver-sail'd wonder, a world-famous destination that still prompts people to marvel at its seemingly strange geometry, and gleaming dream of a design, nearly two decades along.
The celebrated cultural hub now has a brand-new neighbor, one that is making its official debut on Wednesday, July 6: Conrad Los Angeles, a luxury hotel designed by the innovative architect behind the concert hall that sits to its immediate west.
