From its origins as a vineyard to a twice-dilapidated blight on the city, the Arts District is now the home of SCI-Arc, Hauser &amp; Wirth and the locally beloved Bread Lounge.&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="http://outpost.archinect.com" target="_blank">The Archinect Outpost</a> - our retail initiative featuring a&nbsp;collection of small-run, independently published architecture and design publications - opened its polygal doors on June 15th with the intention of living up to the quality of its newfound neighbors in the Arts District.</p> <p>Now available at the Outpost is our free guide of the Arts District, featuring a walking guide for those unfamiliar with the area. Our selection is based on the customer feedback we received during Archinect Outpost's first two months of operation, most of whom had never been to Los Angeles, and fewer still had been to the Arts District. Check out some highlights from our recommended walking route below.</p> https://archinect.com/features/article/90301614/take-a-walk-mike-the-poet-on-l-a-s-grand-avenue Amelia Taylor-Hochberg 2014-01-20T13:34:00-05:00 >2020-01-08T20:37:08-05:00 <img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/lo/loc2w3yp67616und.jpg?fit=crop&auto=compress%2Cformat&enlarge=true&w=1200" border="0" /><p> On the verge of metamorphosis, Los Angeles' Grand Avenue could do with a check-up. To take a record of the historic street, Mike "The Poet" Sonksen walks its length from Grand Park to South Park, and muses on its rich history from downtown's beginnings.</p>
