Imagining a Watery DreamWorks Future

With DreamWorks SKG having inked a deal with the developers of Playa Vista [“DreamWorks, Playa Vista Agree on Terms,” Sept 22], perhaps they all might now pause and consider redesigning their development as one constructed on stilts.

With the prospect of melting ice shelves in Earth’s polar regions plus the decline of all alpine glaciers worldwide, the project site (plus Venice and Marina del Rey) could be under salt water in the not-too-distant future. Why not re-imagine a sizable portion of where the movie industry found its genesis here on the West Coast: downtown Los Angeles.
