LAX Pylons
* Re “LAX Gets Face Lift for Democratic Convention,” May 2:
The pylon beautification of LAX is the worst concept yet. If the design is to enhance the area for incoming Democratic conventioneers, how about doing something about the ugly entrance to L.A. along La Cienega. Surely the old oil fields present no cosmetic panorama for first-time arrivals that use that corridor to enter L.A.
Spending money to enhance our image is one thing. Using it foolishly to install pylons is ridiculous. Democrats would rather see the money used to feed and clothe underprivileged children than be entertained by pylons on Century Boulevard.
