LA Beyond Cars: A Global Perspective on Rail and Public Space



WHAT IF WE COULD CHANGE OUR CITY?

WHAT IF WE COULD ALTER THE TIME IT TAKES TO TRAVEL TO WORK?

CAN PUBLIC OPEN SPACE TRAVERSE TRAIN TRACKS AND CONNECT DIVIDED COMMUNITIES?

CAN TRANSIT STATIONS CREATE NEW HUBS OF COMMUNITY ACTIVITY?

WILL HIGH-SPEED RAIL TRANSFORM THE WAY WE BUILD CITIES?

WILL WE NEED CARS?



LA is at a crossroads. It has grown from distant communities of missionaries and rancheros to a diverse yet separated community of suburbs, and now to an unhappily-joined community of industries and sprawl. The growth of Los Angeles as a de-centralized city has created a playground for the automobile -- where no less than a six lane freeway will do, massive parking lots litter the built environment, and traffic strikes fear into anyone looking to traverse the city.



This is not to say that the automobile is no longer relevant, rather public life and, more importantly, pedestrian life has suffered as a result of its pervasiveness. This exhibition is intended as a catalyst for change, a means to promote tangible and ideological rail proposals to provoke a civic discussion amongst Angelenos as we re-strategize rail and public space in the City with the introduction of high-speed rail.



The proposed project is a massive undertaking that holds the opportunity to both heal the wounds of past infrastructure mistakes divided our communities and breathe new life into our urban cores. When high-speed trains arrive, we can either continue building automobile-oriented developments or we build a new image of our City.



Let us see what we can create.

• New Ideas

• Existing Projects / Designs

• Documentaries + Fiction Films

• Designs for LA Union Station



Entrants: AECOM, Morphosis, Zaha Hadid Architects, Lehrer Architects, Mia Lehrer Landscape Architects, Michael Maltzan Architecture, Perkins + Will, Foster + Partners, MVRDV, Topotek, Eric Owen Moss Architects, Oana Rades and Thijs van Bijsterveldt, KPG Design Studio, Mercury High-Speed Trains, Derrick Choi and more.



The railLA Call for Ideas is an open, international call for interested parties to submit ideas, concepts, designs, and other relevant materials/resources on high-speed rail. LA Beyond Cars, the exhibition of work from the Call for Ideas will run from July 29, 2010 to August 28, 2010 at the "jewel box" in the City National Plaza Center at 525 S. Flower in Downtown Los Angeles.



Opening Night - Thursday, July 29, 2010 from 6-10 PM

Band, DJ, Food by Drago Centro, and Cash Bar
