I feel like we are running in circles, its core was larger but it didn't develop different, Phoenix's town center had a pre war street car, as did Dallas. Its just the magnitude of LA was/is that much greater at the time. But the pattern of development among all three places is very similar which was my original contention.
Like Philly, and NY having similar development patterns as they developed at the same time, nobody is suggesting that Philly is as large as NY, NY has a much greater magnitude but they are similar to each other.
