@tyler_therealtor: LA’s original Chinatown was demolished in the 1930s to make way for Union Station, displacing an enormous Chinese-American community. But that community went on to start NEW Chinatown, the Nation’s first ever Chinese owned and built Chinatown. Designed to celebrate Chinese culture, it is now filled with both decades-old family-owned restaurants, and new Michelin star restaurants alike 🇨🇳 What’s your favorite Chinatown spot? Let me know in the comments. 👇 Buying or selling in New Chinatown or anywhere else in LA?

You forgot to mention the Los Angeles Chinese Massacre of 1871. The largest genocide in Los Angeles history….

Forget about Chinatown, SGV is where it’s at now.

The Chan Family was also a co-founder of Cathay Bank because he was denied a housing loan in Silver Lake, which became the 1st Chinese American owned and operated commercial bank

Thanks to Newsom Shut down. Now Chinatown is a ghost town, more than half of the stores went out of business since it is all small business selling merchandise

This guy claiming to be an expert on Chinese history and culture in the LA area like we all live in Chinatown or something? There are far more Chinese in sgv, Rowland heights, Irvine, etc.

Alovera St had a building where the Chinese lived in the dark, might have been a basement. There was a massacre there. Tour in 4th grade but never heard about it again.
