Industrial District Green

Our mission is to improve the livability of the DTLA Industrial District through the implementation and maintenance of community-based greening and open space projects while engaging under-served members of the community via education and outreach programs. Our target zone for greening is the eastern portion of Downtown Los Angeles, an area that suffers from some of California's worst air quality due to local freight operations and proximity to major freeways. Additionally, the area borders the LA River and is a major source of pollutants into the local watershed. Numerous studies have shown that attractive and sustainable urban communities foster wellness in the local population as well as economic vitality. Urban greening is a proven win-win proposition that requires relatively little investment upfront for significant returns over time. Thus we believe all Industrial District stakeholders stand to benefit from greening initiatives. Consequently, we seek to engage and educate all community members in support of our vision for greener and healthier neighborhoods For information on how you can help support urban greening in Downtown Los Angeles, please call:(213) 293-1425 or visit
