You always get a better sense of LA's built density from the east southeast looking to the west northwest;
Additionally, you can see how the Santa Monica Mountain Range cuts right through the center of the city as well as the Verdugos (top right corner), which skew the density statistics.
Heck a large sliver of northeast LA is even in the San Gabriel mountains.
That road with the buildings heading west is Wilshire? And LAX to the far left (off the image)? Trying to get my bearings. And that photo really shows how much Grand Wilshire cheats with that flagpole. US Bank/Library/First Interstate or whatever they call it this week is still much taller...
