Exterior view of the new Koreatown Plaza, which cost about $25 million and is one example of the area's economic resurgence. The plaza, located at 928 South Western Avenue, just south of Wilshire Boulevard, was designed by Ki Suh Park, a managing partner of Gruen Associates. The redevelopment of Koreatown began in the early 1970s, concentrating along Western Avenue, Olympic Boulevard, 8th Street and Vermont Avenue. Photograph dated January 15, 1989.
