Chapter 4: Megalopolis

Although not part of the Megalopolis area, Los Angeles shares many characteristics identified with that area. It has proximity to the coast, a large, densely populated metropolitan area, tall buildings, busy streets, crowded housing and a need for extensive public services. Meaning that if Los Angeles was in the Megalopolis area, it would fit right in perfectly.

Numerous complex urban activities take place in Los Angeles everyday, which nothing represents that better than a complex highway interchange!



Even geographic problems are similar in L.a, such as urban sprawl and crowding. Especially traffic congestion in rush hour.

Better take the street
