The project was adopted in response to deteriorating <br />conditions in the downtown. The decline of the downtown began in the 1960's when <br />growth in the Orange County suburbs resulted in Santa Ana's decline as the central <br />marketplace for Orange County. Revitalization objectives included creating convenient <br />parking, rehabilitating and retrofitting historic structures, and providing infill development <br />that would support a mix of office, retail and residential uses. In the past 20 years, the <br />Agency has built six public parking structures, the Fiesta Marketplace, new commercial <br />office buildings and 600 senior units. Downtown is also the site of the new Ronald <br />Reagan Federal Building and Courthouse.
