What did they do to the top of the former new otani Hotel?!! That — border at the top doesn't look too good:

One reason thru the yrs I've often thought of LA as not being as crowded or full of ppl as NIMBYs or others make it out to be is cuz hoods like DT can be so quiet during the day. I notice most of the sidewalks in your photos look strangely empty. I'm guessing you took the pics on the weekend, which doesn't help. But I've been in the hood even during the weekday & noticed how quiet it can be, with not as many ppl out & about as one would associate with almost any major city in the world.
By contrast, I'll drive onto various fwys all around DT & be stuck in the middle of thousands of cars, even traffic jams. To me that's an indication LA isn't set up right.
too many ppl there----way out in the burbs, for instance----not enough here. Too few ppl living in one place, too many ppl living somewhere else. Too many ppl working too far from home, too few ppl living close to work.[/QUOTE]
