Oh, we can, and we have. The question is, why can't we build rough good looking buildings to fill an area. It seems that for every attractive building that is built in Los Angeles, two ugly buildings are built along with it. It is extremely aggravating, and bugs me to no end. Id say, the reason this happens is because, in L.A., people settle for what they have got. Like take this forum for example. Everyone seems to like the proposed building because it is 'better' then what is there now. People in L.A. have no civic pride. I am positive that if this building was being built in, say, Seattle on an empty lot, people would be all against it. In L.A. It is simple better then what was there before, so why not? This behavior has to stop for L.A. to become pretty. Otherwise, L.A. will be in its ugly slump forever.
