It offers a variety of office and suite spaces for lease, ranging from modest executive suites to large scale commercial retail or office units. This business center targets businesses who want visibility, flexibility, and proximity to key parts of the city.

Note: I did not find explicit mention of coworking-space style open desks, hot-desking, or meeting-room-rental by the hour in the sources — the focus is more on leased office/suite space. If you need meeting rooms specifically, contacting the management would clarify.

| Pros | Cons |
| Pros: • Prime central location near Downtown LA, Koreatown, easy access to public transport and major corridors. • Flexible suite sizes (small to large), retail and office mix, build-to-suit potential. • Ample parking, 24/7 security and access control features, high-floor views. • On-site and nearby amenities (food, retail, services). Helps convenience. • Good walk-score / transit score, making commuting by public transport feasible. |
Cons: • Lease rates may be relatively high due to location and amenities; small suites may be priced, plus cost of customization. • Public hours / customer service hours not very transparent; potential issues in arranging after-hours service or meetings. • Limited explicit information about coworking / hot-desk / meeting room rentals by the hour in sources; may not suit those needing fully shared coworking infrastructure. • Depending on traffic, commute by car may be challenging; parking cost might add up although parking is available. • Older building (built in 1975), which may imply that some finishes, infrastructure might require upgrades; tenants may need to invest in fit-outs. |
