What buildings to see in LA

Jefferson

I am here for a week, and I've seen most of the FLW, Gehry, E.O. Moss, Schindler, Neutra, etc. during past trips. I've also seem the Eames house and Getty Center. I am going to check out the Disney Hall tomorrow. What other newer projects can you think of that would be worth seeing? Thanks

i believe there is a moneo building you could check out.
i am also sure there are a few past threads you should look up on this.

As long as you're downtown, check out city hall. It's a good example of a hybrid building that manages to be both monument (tower above) and urban-space-definer (at ground level). The interior spaces are wonderful, and the flow and connection between the first four floors is really nice. Its design demonstrates many facets of good "public" architecture.
