ROW DTLA

Very underwhelming ... my friends and I were in the art district and needed to kill some time before an event we had tickets for and looked up activities to do nearby when ROW DTLA came up. It looked interesting with all the little shops and restaurants that it advertises on their website. The website even said it was open however, after going there not one store or restaurant was open and both food trucks were closed. While walking around we passed two security guards (neither of which said anything to us) until a third security guard drove past us and then reversed in his golf cart to ask us if we worked there and if we were taking pictures because he got a call and had to leave his office to find four girls who were walking around.

I would not recommend to anyone going here after my personal experience and have absolutely no intention...

I actually went here for Shopify event I tell you it was the best time ever. I would like to say it is a hidden place if anybody has an hour and their downtown once you get through the homeless people whom I do feel sorry for and always give money. Once you get past the eyesore of a building that's on the outside please drive around that curve because it's really difficult to find when you're coming in from the light I think it's called Bay once you park in the farthest parking structure you will get out of your car and face the most beautiful place ever it is a hidden Jewel when I tell you I was flabbergasted they have a bar down there they have food have clothes they have a Shopify location which is great that actually holds all the seminars in there please...

Weirdly sterile, desolate, and too quiet. It's hard to put a finger on what this place is missing? It needs some life or character, everything is a bit too uniform and standoffish. It seems close to being hip but it's not quite there. Hard to tell what stores exist and where, better/larger/unique signage would help. There is no clear traffic flow with lots of dead ends, and gates blocking the flow onto/off the street. I feel bad for the tenants, many have cute little shops that would grab trendy clientele if the Row could bring them in. Came on Saturday. Parking situation is nice - they did...
