What in the concrete hellscape is this?

[–] LORDSMEGMA@sh.itjust.works 55 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Even better, its on top of a hill with only a couple roads access. Needless to say, traffic is a fucking nightmare. Put a subway in from literally anywhere else to the stadium would be a better option.

[–] upbeatdingo@piefed.world 41 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Also, it comes with the story of Chavez Ravine which was forcefully evicted to make way for the stadium.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Now, let me guess what kind of people lived there...

LA and bulldozing neighborhoods is sadly a tale as old as time

[–] fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

LA is thinking of doing a gondola

[–] xavier666@lemmy.umucat.day 45 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Why not just drive from parking to the stadium? No need to build an expensive subway, just a small 8 lane road from the parking to the stadium will be enough.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

70mph limit

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

They should have drive in stadiums by now, it's the obvious thing to do.

Getting to/from dodger stadium is awful. There’s only 1 small motel nearby. It’s an uphill walk. The traffic is a mess. There’s no near train stop.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

What this place needs is obviously more car lanes.

[–] iocase@lemmy.zip 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The American mind cannot comprehend transportation unless it involves cars somehow

[–] TwodogsFighting 6 points 4 weeks ago

They apparently cannot also comprehend multi storey Carparks.

[–] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 month ago (2 children)

What a gigantic waste of space. Never knew how large this stadium is.

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 6 points 1 month ago

Even if you were a local you probably wouldn’t appreciate it unless you saw it like this. How much housing/flats could have been created rather than spending at most a few nights a week as a car park?

[–] MadBigote@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why dod they not build a 3-4 story parking garage around the stadium? The area of the parking loy ia greater than the stadium itself.

[–] wolfpack86@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Parking garages are expensive. You can spend $30,000 to build a space... At $50 a game you'd pay it off in 7.5 seasons, not controlling for maintenance and operating costs.

Now the trend is to build entertainment districts around venues... Which creates more revenue per square foot, so you'll start to see more garages going up.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

A parking garage couldn't possibly cost more than a subway system, especially when you factor in the ongoing costs of operations, security, maintenance, etc. A parking garage is a big static building, a subway is an entire SYSTEM of many moving parts.

Uhhhh, why haven’t they done underground parking?

[–] RustyShackleford@piefed.social 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I would wager Earthquakes would be one reason.

[–] bandwidthcrisis@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

LA has plenty of underground parking, including at the children's hospital, so I don't think that it's that.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

That might make line go up more slowly.

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 13 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

All so massively unhealthy sedentary blobs can go hoot and holler at drug-enhanced millionaires playing a poor child's pastime while enriching the billionaire owners by buying 25$ hot dogs made of factory farmed animals huddled ten to the square foot.

🎵 Pave paradise

🎵 And put up a parking lot

How about a subway from LA to the stadium?

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

Maybe this is step 1 in tricking car brains to support public transport

[–] Fontasia@feddit.nl 8 points 4 weeks ago
[–] H1AA6329S@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

Wow. US are truly fucked

[–] snoons@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

What a shithole...

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

So turns out public transport is great. As long as it's to and from parking lots.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Gotta get to the stadium early to avoid needing to park in the next state.

[–] Karmanopoly@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

It's like when Homer parked at work but the parking spot was right next to his back yard

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Disneyland has trams to take you from the parking lots to the entrance of the park. This is the next iteration.

[–] sangeteria@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Something very yonic and sapphic about this picture... I see why lesbians love softball

That is so vile

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They gave up on the gondola?

[–] errer@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think the Gondola is still on the table. Honestly it’s a great idea, Union station is very close as the crow flies, just walking from it right now is a nightmare because of the freeway in the way.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Eh, I agree with nandert that an underground light metro would be more useful, in part because you can use it to extend transit north of Dodgers Stadium to create a better used system overall.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That may be, I’m just unsure on the cost differential. Feels like an underground line would be more expensive, but IDK.

At some point put in a multistory. Or forget the car park and just run a train or bus service to the stadium.
