Lokasi
Downtown Long Beach is bordered by the Los Angeles River to the west, and Ocean Boulevard to the south (south of the Ocean is considered the "Downtown Shoreline," a separate area). Alamitos Avenue roughly limits the city center to the east, though the actual downtown center extends several blocks east of Alamitos. Likewise, the city center effectively ends around 7th Street in the north, but the downtown city zonation takes as far north of Anaheim Street between Pacific Avenue and Long Beach Boulevard, and up to 10th Street east of it.
Larger urban areas include the East Village Art District, West End, North Pine, Civic Center and "Downtown Core" or business and entertainment areas.
