South Ardmore Ave
"Busy area in the heart of the Wilshire Business District"
I used to work on this street and it's a busy area full of office buildings and traffic. Ardmore Ave. south of Wilshire consists of apartment buildings. Along with Office buildings, there are lots of stores and restaurants that cater to the the business clientele during the week. A Radisson hotel is located nearby as well as a Enterprise rent a car. Public transportation is fairly accessible from Ardmore with buses as well as the subway metro located within walking distance. This area of Los Angeles is also called Korea Town since a majority of the people who live and work here are of Korean ancestry. It's actually the largest Korean population outside of Korea.
3rd St
"Mixture of Tourists and Beach Goers"
3rd St in Santa Monica is known for the 3rd St. Promenade where shopping and restaurants are abound. The promenade strip consists of retails shops like The Puma Store, and Diesel and has a wide array of restaurants to dine at. Also sport bars such as Hooters and Yankee Doodles are located in the Promenade. Most of the people you see on 3rd st are tourists and local beach visitors who are looking for a sunny stroll or a romantic night out. Santa Monica beach is just a few mins West from 3rd. st as well as the World Famous Santa Monica Pier. Most of the residential parts of 3rd st in Santa Monica is located east of Ocean Park Blvd and consists of mostly apartment buildings.
Keystone Ave
"Quiet residential nieghborhood, but HORRIBLE Parking"
The street is sparingly lined with trees and is fairly quiet but if you don't have a parking space good luck! A majority of the street is made up of Apartment buildings and I usually see younger 20-35 year olds living on the street. It's centrally located in West LA and is walking distance to restaurants and near local Dive bars such as Saints and Sinners. Public Transportation is nearby on Palms and traffic on the street is minimal. The issue is just the parking.
