ATWATER VILLAGE: Friend of Curbed, Atwater Village Newbie dropped this aerial shot in the Curbed Flickr pool, writing: "This is the Atwater Village intersection LA City Council District 13 is endeavoring to adjust. See, it's a very large 5-point intersection. Way too easy to do donuts in here. Happens regularly, and neighbors don't like it. CD13's plans for the new intersection layout are coming soon." We'll look forward to more updates on this plan.
