I found this place to be a good stopover while working around downtown LA! Grand Park is a wide open urban park, good for taking in prepared food to eat, joining co-workers for a break and join friends for a game of soccer. It’s also a good area for festival style concerts and shows! There’s interesting displays of flags and there’s a tribute memorial honoring the military services that have served our country! There’s a covered area with chairs and tables and a well maintained restroom. Grand Park is next to the famous LA City Hall. The park is easily accessible on foot for those who work in the area, as well as attendees to local functions, events and commitments. While Grand Park is free to use, area parking will be expensive for any length of stay. So a stop off just to use the park may have be considered, if to justify the expense! Lastly, the ongoing plantings of arid tolerant gardening is appreciated! I would’ve liked to have seen more tree shade and naturalness amongst the neatly sectioned spaces. Tho I guess it goes with the territory of limited urban space here and the tradeoff of not having hiding places for vagrants, with whom this park seems to be freed of. I felt sad for those who were displaced, although mindful of my visitors concerns of going here.
