I know but it really should be considered its own separate central to downtown neighborhood.

It is easier to get something built in DTLA without nimby/anti-gentrification opposition than in the burbs. Plus high density skyscraper projects are allowed by zoning. Thus the booming supply of housing units, almost all in highrises. The demand is also high, because DTLA has become a cool place to live, although homeless people everywhere camping on the sidewalks dents the image. But they also live on the sidewalks in places like Venice. Slowly but surely, housing for homeless may expand, removing the Calcutta vibe. 10 years from now, DTLA may look like downtown Toronto does today, with a few more supertalls thrown in. Maybe even by the Olympics.
