THE HOLLYWOOD COMMUNITY PLAN -a roundtable discussion- Wednesday, January 18 (6:30pm-8:30pm) AIA Los Angeles 3780 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 800 Los Angeles, CA 90010

Dear Bicycle Master Plan Stakeholder,

Good Jobs, Green Jobs Conference

In little more than two decades, greater Los Angeles has seem more than 100 miles of rail with more than 100 stations built and opened. Metro is on track to double those numbers in the coming decades with rail extending into almost every area of Los Angeles County- perhaps even sooner if the American Fast Forward initiative is successful. If infrastructure is one of the greatest influencers of planning and public forum, Los Angeles is on the verge of transformational change.    More Info/ Register Here

Come hear Jarrett Walker discuss his new book "Human Transit: How clear Thinking about Public Transit Can Enrich our Communities and Our Lives."

Join us for an innovative approach for the rethinking semi-industrial, mix use, Glendale Boulevard in Echo Park from the 2 fwy to Sunset.  Participants will be asked to create their ideal street in 20 minutes. Using recycled objects  participants will build small dioramas to help think through their ideas. Because there are no limitations, and right or wrong answers this is a safe zone for all ideas.  Once the time is up the builders will share their ideas in a one-minute presentation to the group. Collaboration is the next step and participants will be place in small groups. They will have 15 minutes to share their ideas.  They will be tasked to pick a spot along Glendale Boulevard where they can implement their ideas. Each team will present their plan to the group.  As a conclusion the ideas will be synthesized and discussed.
