I'd like to see the dirt lot across the street and immediately south of the Metro parking structure developed into a 10-15 story residential tower with little to no parking. It's a perfect lot size for something like that. And the strip mall, auto repair shop, and gas station starting on the northeast corner of La Cienega and Jefferson are prime candidates for redevelopment into mixed use further down the line. There are a couple of local fast casual food businesses in the strip mall that I'd like to see relocated across the street first - and would love for the City to fund or provide tax incentives for those moves to allow those properties to be redeveloped without killing those local businesses.
