About West Los Angeles
The siting of several skyscraping office buildings and the cluster of various Japanese controlled businesses in the central region of West L.A has made the district a boisterous commercial hub. Residential houses in the area are not as high as the commercial buildings. These houses were built in the 20s and 60s. However, modern residential apartments are springing up, just as population pressure increases with area sedan services to LAX and back are helping grow this city with business professionals.
