You Are Here: The Heart of Downtown

A couple of recent pictures of one of my favorite places Downtown, Cesar Chavez Plaza.


The Plaza has changed over the years from being considered a dangerous, needle park to a friendly, more open Downtown Plaza.  Changes around the Plaza have really helped change the atmosphere and use of the Plaza - especially the addition of The Citizen Hotel at 926 J Street (corner of 10th and J Streets).


Additional key additions that have transformed the neighborhood include the spectacular US Bank Building housing Class A office space and attaching to the expanded Sacramento Main Library branch.



Also transforming this center city neighborhood are government investment - the Class A offices in the Joe Serna Jr CalEPA Building on 10th and I Streets; the mixed use (ground floor retail) City Parking garage and the joint project - the restored classic City Hall Building, with the new City Hall addition that wraps around the back of the beautiful historic 1911 building.
