Great Video! Passed right by my apt.
I really hope they build this. Many people in my area have law signs against it. I wouldn't be surprised if it actually raises property values for some areas. The rich people in Cheviot Hills annoy me because that part of the track is below grade and they won't have any stops there anyways. sigh.

Totally agree. NIMBY to the detriment of everyone else (or at least those of us that work). I can't wait to ride this downtown to work.

The selfishness of NIMBYs is astounding. Its always the same: "The train will be loud! It will reduce our property values! Won't someone think of the children!?"
What they're really saying is: "Our whims and desires are more important the the greater good, so f*** off."

I hate it when anyone opposes furthering public transportation, particularly in a place as congested as Los Angeles. It's pretty sweet not needing to worry about things like parking and gas and traffic and the like.

They can't use the same track- the rails are a different width apart.

That was a surprisingly compelling video. Isn't this stuff to be really dry and chase away the interest of the common citizen?
