317 S. Broadway
Grand Central Market Website
Since 1917, there's been an open air market in this location, and it's one of those rare places in Los Angeles that doesn't seem to have changed much in almost a century. Historic photos show shoppers poring over the produce and diners enjoying a meal under neon-lit counters. It's little different today, with lots of inexpensive (and yummy-smelling) food vendors, stalls selling a starting variety of dried chili peppers and restored, classic neon signs overhead.
Grand Central Market is a great place for people-watching, or for an inexpensive and quick meal.
Across the street from the market entrance, you'll find the only remnant of a posh neighborhood that once stood on Bunker Hill.
