NOTE:
The first series of pictures were taken in order, one right after another (sequentially) as I traveled North along Broadway from 8th St. to 3rd St. The pictures are showing the West side of the strip.

I did not leave out any business on purpose, if something was missed it was due to traffic, etc… I was alone, driving and snapping pictures at the same time… which explains the quality of some of the pictures (sorry).

Awesome pic. :D

not the nicest area of DTLA, but still pretty cool, nice pics

Yeah, It's not good looking as like in NYC.

The newly rennovated Orpheum Theater is proof that it is very possible to revive this area and bring Broadway back to its prime days.

Thanks for the pictures! Broadway has so much potential it's not even funny. I would love to see most of those theaters reopen for either live performance shows or as movie theaters. The stores in the area could be kept, but they certainly could clean up a bit (fix the signage and paint the buildings etc...)
