With hints of his Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Frank Gehry’s Disney Concert Hall is to die for. It wasn’t cheap––$270 million for the Hall, and another $110 million for parking. But this world-class facility, the gem of LA, is worth every penny. With free entrance for viewing from 10 AM to 2 PM, this is a must-see stop on any proper tour of the City of Angels.

While in the area, visitors should also take in the extraordinary Broad Museum (a tremendous showcase of modern art), Angel’s Flight (the world's shortest railway), Grand Central Market, City Hall (the Dragnet Building), the exquisite Dorothy Chandler Pavilion (where I attended The Oscars back in the day), the Bradbury Building (where Blader Runner was shot), the Conrad Hotel (I stay in room 2318), and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Bunker Hill should be a tremendous landmark, akin to Beverly Hills, attracting LA’s best and brightest. However, the state’s maddening low-income housing mandates and the Mayor’s failure to clean out homeless encampments, not to mention criminals, doom its prospects. President Trump needs to come in with 1000 National Guard, and scrub the streets, completely clear out the homeless, handcuff the criminals, and deport the illegals. Only then will LA’s Bunker Hill live up to its promise. With the mediocre, dimwitted Woke tool Karen Bass at the helm, this is never going to happen. Still, Disney Hall and Bunker Hill are worth a visit, if only by day.
