La Plaza, Palm Springs

A true mixed-use development from--gasp!--the 1930's that mixed housing, hotel, retail, parking, a theatre and a market in one compact, central spot in Downtown Palm Springs. 
 
Today, the housing looks largely unoccupied, the hotel closed, the market long-gone and the theatre only open with a live show during the tourist season.  Several retail spaces, most notably a department store, are vacant--like much of Downtown Palm Springs.
