Are Nervous Developers Giving Us A Stumpy Downtown?
@guest #6: <<< exactly the type of low-information creatures LA has to deal with. Here is just a quick summary: Midtown has a period of low-rise buildings due to the makeup of the ground/soil/bedrock. The small buildings you see in midtown is because of a lack of stable bed rock— not because 7 floors is the ideal building height.
Cool place. I’m loving the color of the kitchen counters, the rock walls and room dividers; but that dining table seems completely out of place. Lot also seems a bit cramped—kinda defeats the purpose of all the cool glass walls if there’s a fence 8 feet from them…
LA is the Best For Bros, Silver Lake and Its Gentlemen's Shops

U ROCKGIRLFRIEND, keep it coming! I know you will continue this fight, and see it to the end. I to have witnessed the craziness that goes on in that courtyard, and completely agree with all you are doing to save the hood. Your hard work, and voice is much appreciated.
@guest #201: Uh, no. My job asked me to help get the LA office in shape, it being run by mostly native Angelenos who took two-hour seistas and called it lunch LOL. My work here is (mercifully) almost done, then i’m on the first plane back to civilization. Be nice to actually see a show first-run instead of waiting two years for it to get to LA, and to hit some real museums instead of that county facility that thinks a big fucking rock is considered art!
What a looser he lives in Oxnard, no wonder his career is in the toilet when your surrounding of preference is so sterile and void of culture. Considering he could afford anywhere else and he selected this area just goes to show his IQ (and investment IQ) is not up to par of other rock stars.
Here's an Awesome Redesign of the Los Angeles Freeway Map
don’t the vast majority of people who live here or any city for that matter spend probably 90 percent of their life in 1 or 2 square miles of the city? LA is vast and I never have a reason to go to much of it. i do most my shopping, work and eating out etc in neighborhoods near where I live. I spend my time on the west side, and occiassionally venture east down that sliver through hancock park and into the hip parts of downtown. once and awhile I hit silver lake and eagle rock and maybe a couple of times a year i’ll find myself in pasadena. but all the other cities or areas of the city like bell gardens, gardena, downey, glendora, Lawndale, Hawthorne van nuys, buena park … the list goes on.. are places I have no reason or desire to travel to so my LA is much smaller than what the map shows.
