STATEMENT: CCA on the Vandalism of Oceanwide Plaza

LOS ANGELES (FEBRUARY 1, 2024) –CCA PRESIDENT & CEO NELLA MCOSKER ISSUED THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT FOLLOWING THE VANDALISM OF OCEANWIDE PLAZA:

Published Thursday, February 1, 2024

"We are disturbed by the images of the vandalism of Oceanwide Plaza. This is a representation of the very real neglect that DTLA has gone through over the past decade. We see it every day with the number of unhoused Angelenos experiencing mental health crises in the streets, the shuttered businesses we walk past and lack of public safety that we hear of too often. At CCA, we advocate for the vibrancy of DTLA, but part of that means having a clear view of the very real issues that exist here. We take this moment to call on our city's leaders to give the heart of the city the proper attention it deserves. While we appreciate LAPD's swift response, we urge the City to take steps to address this blighted property before it becomes a further nuisance".
