9 listings on and around Grand Avenue — the cultural spine of Downtown, and the shortest walk between major institutions anywhere in the city.
What is here. Five Arts & Culture listings, more than any other neighbourhood: Walt Disney Concert Hall, The Broad, MOCA Grand Avenue, The Music Center and The Colburn School. Angels Flight Railway connects the hill down to Hill Street. Premier Workspaces at Wells Fargo Center is the desk, and Downtown Dental and the Stuart M. Ketchum-Downtown YMCA serve people who work up here.
How to browse. Park once and walk. The Broad, MOCA and Disney Hall are within a few minutes of each other on Grand. Ride Angels Flight down rather than walking the hill if you are heading to Grand Central Market afterwards.
