detail: What possible futures exist for a sustainable downtown Los Angeles? For nearly half a century downtown Los Angeles was virtually abandoned as a place to both live and work. In recent years however, some urban renewal plans have come to fruition, and many more are being considered - bringing life back to the urban core. Using the Not a Cornfield project site and the surrounding areas including the Los Angeles River as contextual anchors, four urban thinkers and planners will discuss these issues, offering a few possible and probable futures to look forward to. Scheduled to appear: James Rojas, Michael Dear, Lane Barden, Alan Loomis, David Fletcher. More info on-line.
