If you’re a fan of the ocean, L.A. is definitely a viable destination. Grab a towel, sunscreen and bottled water (an area staple), and head out to any one of the city’s 33 public beaches. With more than 75 miles of coastline, you can be sure to find a patch of sand just for you!

Downtown L.A.’s newest prime address has been around for years. The Roosevelt Lofts on 7th Street adeptly fuse modern amenities inside with the historic façade of an authentic 1920s building outside. The upscale condo lofts feature single and multi-level floor plans, dramatic arches, rusticated masonry and stunning architectural details that recall the dynamism of the roaring ’20s.
