Thanks in part to the Community Redevelopment Agency, and with the support of the local community, this area has enjoyed a revitalization for nearly three decades. Historic preservation projects, coupled with the introduction of new residential, retail, and commercial development, have brought new life to the nation’s largest ethnic community center.

Teramachi Homes is an integral part of this revitalized community with its appealing architecture, outdoor gardens, and courtyard—all of which embody the area’s unique spirit and provide a vibrant setting for senior living in Los Angeles.



Visit the JACCC for ethnic art and cultural events, including the Asia America Symphony Orchestra, golf tournaments, and the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival.

Don’t miss the celebration, food, and fun at the annual Nisei Week festival held every August.

Just minutes away, you can view the best of contemporary artwork at the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA.



For outstanding local shopping, visit the Japanese Village Plaza or Little Tokyo Shopping Center, featuring award-winning restaurants, fresh flowers, specialty jewelry, and a full-service bank.

Also nearby is the ImaginAsian Center, Los Angeles’ premier Asian American theater. Seniors pay only $7.00 for admission.
