I am not expert on this, so I would love to hear from someone more knowledgeable, especially regarding high-rises or mid-rises along Wilshire or anything over about 4 stories anywhere else. You can see quite a difference as you cross from LA into SM along Wilshire.

They definitely want the Purple Line underground but show no willingness to substantially expand density along Wilshire or pretty much anywhere so as to help justify it. Remember that they are not included in 30/10.

They are now claiming to allow greater density around Expo stations but I would like to see how the actual permitting process works since the city council and most residents are opposed to development, even the removal of trailer parks or dilapidated sfh's.

For sure, nothing tall is going to get built at the 4th St. termini, even though this is "downtown". I am concerned about the more inland stations having much beyond SFV density.
