Los Angeles: Park Fifth Tower

[JDRCRASH 53]

You know, this maybe only just the beginning of the largest downtown high-rise boom in Los Angeles history, but don't any of you guys here on Simtropolis think that this is a possibly a little early exageration for the City of Angels? 

Here are a couple of links I found:

Feel free to express opinions!

I'm surpised there is still land available in LA; it's just one big developed megalopolis mess.

There's still a whole desert basin of plenty of space left beyond Palmdale towards California City and Barstow.
I've been doing some research and found that parking lots throughout L.A. are pretty soon going to be transformed into underground parking structures to make way for mid-rise and high-rise construction projects above ground

Any pictures of what it's going to look like? I live in LA and didn't hear about this until now.

Yeah, I'd like to see some pictures. LA hasn't seen any new high rises to stand out in the skyline in quite a while.

See, there's this thing called redevelopment.

One reason why Simtropolis isn't aware of this project is because it hasn't been shown in Skyscraperpage or Emporis.
But here is a link to the site nonetheless:
