The LA Weekly gives a great rundown of new mixed use, adaptive reuse, and high rise living going up in the City of LA. Adaptive re-use projects often involve the conversion of a building such as a historic 1940's era department store into lofts or condos. A bonus of adaptive re-use projects is that they don't take existing apartments out of stock which has forced out many low income families during the recent condo conversion craze.
