I’ve never set foot in either the Malibu Getty or the Brentwood version of it. Take a trip to London, Geneve, or Moscow and you’ll see L.A. has no museum worth a crap! We don’t have any architects who can design, build, and maintain great museums, hotels, and train stations. Projects have to be piecemeal, cheap, and filled with corruption, thus free parking with lots of it available isn’t included in the plans.
Good news: NBA season will be CANCELLED—Good to see AEG have all those darked out evenings without stealing and pillaging the fans out of overpriced parking and insanely priced sodas.
Maybe Occupy L.A. should go to Staples and take refuge inside?
I must say that’s a great idea. Occupy LA ought to live inside AEG.
