Towers of Downtown Los Angeles

L.A. Live, a premiere destination for live entertainment in Los Angeles, sought a new public space. Between Crypto.com Arena and Peacock Theater—and adjacent to the convention center, Ritz-Carlton, JW Marriott and sports, music, restaurants, shops, bowling alley, cinema and museum—sits a six-lane, 1/3 mile long vehicular thoroughfare. The design agenda closes this road to automobiles entirely, eliminating the street and adjacent curbs and sidewalks. The result transforms the existing conditions into a grand city plaza of over 250,000 square feet of open public area.

Our 11 media towers (four at 58’ tall and seven at 37’)—blend architecture, sculpture, art, technology and urban design. Infilled with expanded metal mesh, the twisting box trusses provide visual curiosity, experiential interest and structural resistance. Diagonally staggered, the towers flank this new Chick Heart Court. The four taller towers—each equipped with a pair of 13’ by 23’ curved digital screens—frame the most active area of the plaza, an area that greets the 20,000 attendees for a Lakers’/Kings’ game or music concert.
