About this listen

On this episode we go back in time to the founding of Los Angeles in the exact location that would later become DTLA. Then we take a quick trip through the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries and discover some statistics about the current downtown population. Spoiler: When it comes to higher education, we’ve got the rest of LA beat!

We also talk about what’s happening in DTLA this week, including a DTLA trivia night and a new, big green neighbor at the Natural History Museum.
