I-10, on the other hand, could be fully removed as it's "only" an urban freeway. From East Los Angeles to Santa Monica. Get rid of it and put a railway in its place.
Tell me you don't know anything about LA without telling me you don't know anything about LA

FYI I-10 goes from the Pacific (Santa Monica) to the Atlantic (Jacksonville, FL). It's not some small stub of a freeway. Also, the 10 is probably the freeway LA can least afford to remove. There already is rail that goes between Santa Monica and Downtown-- the Expo Line. And soon, we will have another rail line under Wilshire out to the West Side, stopping just short of SM. The 10 is a pretty necessary piece of Southern California's transportation network.
