To the editor: I waited in line for hours at Metropolis Corridor to say my piece concerning the gondola, solely to be shut down (“Los Angeles City Council votes 12-1 to urge Metro to halt Dodgers gondola project,” Nov. 12).
Like lots of my neighbors, I confirmed up as a result of this venture means one thing to us: much less site visitors on our streets, cleaner air for our children and higher entry between our group in Chinatown to Union Station and Dodger Stadium.
This isn’t about “shiny renderings.” It’s about actual individuals who stay season after season with game-day congestion, unsafe streets and an absence of funding in our neighborhood. It’s about lastly doing one thing that helps individuals who truly stay right here.
We must be working collectively to make it occur, not shutting it down for political factors.
