Lessons From Seattle Could Give L.A. Class

This is to compliment Sam Hall Kaplan for his “Seattle Could Give Lesson to Los Angeles” piece (Oct. 27).

I liked his analysis and his commentary, and I agree with his conclusions. Los Angeles would benefit immeasurably if policy makers would pay attention to our rich architectural history and to pedestrian amenities, as has been done in Seattle.
