uch is the case with Cambria Hotels, who was proud to announce the official beginning of construction of their new hotel in Downtown Los Angeles during an all star DTLA Patriot brunch at Le Petit Paris late last month.

Marking their introduction to DTLA’s thriving and growing business and tourism industry, the new Downtown LA hotel will be located at 419 S. Spring Street just a Metro ride away from everything else DTLA has to offer.

Cambria is well known for their upscale amenities designed for the modern traveler. Offering guests guiltfree indulgences while on the road, properties feature compelling design inspired by their locations, spacious and comfortable rooms, flexible meeting space, and freshly prepared food and local craft beers. Hear that, Iron Triangle?

There are 40 Cambria Hotel properties across the United States.

Choice Hotels International presents Cambria Hotels as a franchise opportunity. DTLA’s location belongs to Sagar Kumar, Executive Vice President, PNK Group.

giving his family, friends and other event attendees more reasons to celebrate. As the speakers took to the platform, Le Petit passed out Champaign mimosas that helped warm the room and make for easy introductions.

Councilmen Jose Huizar was among the attendees who took the time to congratulate Kumar with kind words and a signed certificate of recognition.

Kumar addressed the room thanking those involved since the beginning of his grand undertaking with feelings that toggled between frustration over the lengthly process and elation with the realization that good things do come to those who wait.

Downtown Weekly sat down over brunch with Janis Cannon, Senior Vice President, Upscale Brands just before the main gathering to discuss any built in plans for sustainability and shared in the excitement of their new DTLA location.

Congrats to all! Downtown Weekly’s advice to win over Downtown and become a huge success; hire a cordial staff, pay close attention to detail and serve a mean cocktail. @cambriahotels

ften when we think about smart technology we think smart phones, smart TVs, and even home assistants like Alexa. When AEG and Johnson Controls held a Smart Ready Event in the heart of Los Angeles at the Staples Center they gave Downtown Weekly a Tour for an intimate look into how venues, buildings, and cities can become smarter and more sustainable.

D

epending on your viewpoint this was not the vision of Los Angeles we saw in Demolition Manor the Ridley Scott classic Blade Runner. In fact the future versions of Los Angeles those films portray might be even missing the possible advancements Johnson Controls is looking to provide to AEG and Los Angeles.

Johnson Controls has found that cities are looking to implement particular types of applications, including those that are sustainable and environmentally conscious, while also reducing costs, providing jobs, and increasing public safety. While these aspirations are commendable they also found that the barriers are many.

When Johnson Controls surveyed 330 cities including 120 from Canada and the United States they found that many faced similar fears including security concerns as well as lack of state and federal support. While this seems like a negative there are still many upsides including the fact that North America leads the world in the percentage of cities that intend or have already implemented smart city strategies.

With all the talk of “smart cities” we have to be wondering what exactly a smart city includes? According to Johnson Controls smart cities include applications such as LED street lights, connected street lighting, smart public transportation, smart parking, smart electricity meters, and even air quality monitoring. With updated systems such as connected street lighting and smart public transportation the long term effects can be impressive since urban centers like Los Angeles will be the primary focus of such technologies.

CHUCK STEEDMAN, AEG

The Ever Growing Demand for Smart Cities Lisa Brown, the Senior National Director of Municipal Infrastructure and Smart Cities for Johnson Controls, mentioned that the “smart cities market” is a billion dollar market. With the increased growth of urban sprawl experts have estimated that within the next twenty years that “70 percent of people will be living in urban environments” and that smart applications are a responsible use of resources.

Along with the team on hand from Johnson Controls was the Chief Operating and Development Officer at AEG, Chuck Steedman. AEG is the operator of Staples Center, L.A. Live and the Los Angeles Convention Center. AEG and Johnson Controls have partnered so that AEG can merge the physical and digital path of the consumer. Mr. Steedman explained that the stress the fans attending an event at a stadium or concert venue take a toll on the cities infrastructure.

“The idea behind smart cities and smart venues is to “meaningfully engage” the consumer, Mr. Steedman stated, “because somebody whose engaged is going to be more than likely to repeat as a customer, more than likely to spend more money while on property.” Engaging users and their data is important to companies like AEG.

DATA IS THE NEW OIL As it was stated by both Lisa Brown and Chuck Steedman, “data is the new oil”.

Data is mined from consumers via apps, purchases, locations, web searches, and social media. Smart cities and companies like Johnson Controls and AEG intend to use that data to make money and smart choices about the future of cities. Will the smart cities of tomorrow be Utopian dreamscapes we hope or more of a dystopia digital hive?

Only time will tell, until then AEG and Johnson Controls plans to work to crate a smarter Los Angeles. @aegworldwide
