New year, new us

2018 was an eventful year in the Fashion District. So much happened that we decided to put it all into a little video. You can thank us later!

Last year’s BID Renewal included an expansion of the LA Fashion District’s BID boundaries. The new boundaries expand about a block east, between Olympic Boulevard and 16 ^th Street. Services to this new area began on January 1 ^st , and there’s been a dramatic transformation in some areas. In just 2 weeks, the LA Fashion District Clean Team has collected 6 tons of trash, covered and/or removed 8,742 square feet of graffiti, and provided much needed weed abatement services. The images below show a couple of locations within the new expansion area both before and after receiving BID services: Essex Street & 14 ^th , and Paloma Street & 14 ^th .
