^ that's good to know...things like the lucas museum, fixing up expo park, the ongoing improvements in dtla, the arts dist, south pk, depend heavily on the creative class. Ppl, including day trippers & tourists, interested in museums, hotels, concerts, sports events, will be helped by better transit...as long as it's kept
safe & clean.

In the vid on the lucas museum, the land first shown in the drone shot of the parking lots directly next to the coliseum should have been replaced yrs ago. As for a large parking lot across Fig to the east of expo pk, this hopefully will be UC asap...

Last month, updated renderings were revealed for the Fig, a proposed mixed-use complex across the street from the new Banc of California Stadium in Exposition Park. A draft environmental impact report now makes it official: Irvine-based developer Spectrum Group has eliminated a proposed high-rise tower from the project.
The proposed development, slated for a 4.4-acre site at 3900 S. Figueroa Street, will now consist of three separate buildings featuring a hotel, student housing and mixed-income apartments. A full buildout of the project would include 298 hotel rooms, 222 units of student housing and 186 apartments - 82 of which would be restricted to households earning 80 percent or less than the area median income. The student housing would feature studio, one-, two- and four-bedroom floor plans, while the mixed-income housing would offer studio, one- and two-bedroom dwellings Plans also call for more than 40,000 square feet of ground-level retail and creative office space across the property.
