The City of Angels

No Caption Provided

Los Angeles often known by its initials L.A., is the most populous city in the U.S. State of California and the second most populous in the United States, after New York City, with a population at the 2010 united States Census of 3,792,621. It has an area of 469 square miles and is located in Southern California. Los Angeles is also the seat of Los Angeles County, the most populated and one of the most ethnically diverse counties in the United States, while the entire Los Angeles area itself has been recognized as the most diverse of the nation's largest cities.

Los Angeles was founded on September 4, 1781, by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve. It became a part of Mexico in 1821 following the Mexican War of Independence. In 1848, at the end of the Mexican-American War, Los Angeles and the rest of California were purchased as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, thereby becoming part of the United States. Los Angeles was incorporated as a municipality on April 4, 1850, five months before California achieved statehood.

Nicknamed the City of Angels, Los Angeles is a leading world center of business, international trade, entertainment, culture, media, fashion, science, sports, technology, and education, and has been ranked the third richest city and fifth most powerful and influential city in the world. The city is home to renowned institutions covering a broad range of professional and cultural fields and is one of the most substantial economic engines within the United States. The Los Angeles combined statistical area (CSA) has a gross metropolitan product (GMP) of $831 billion (as of 2008), making it the third largest economic center in the world, after the Greatr Tokyo and New York metropolitan areas. As the home base of Hollywood, the city leads the world in the creation of motion pictures, television productions, stage productions, video games, and recorded music.

Geology

fault line

Los Angeles is subject to earthquakes due to its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire. The geologic instability has produced numerous faults, which cause approximately 10,000 earthquakes annually. One of the major faults is the San Andreas Fault. Located at the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, it is predicted to be the source of Southern California's next big earthquake. Major earthquakes to have hit the Los Angeles area include the 1994 Northridge earthquake, the 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake, the 1971 San Fernando earthquake near Sylmar, and the 1933 Long Beach earthquake. Nevertheless, all but a few quakes are of low intensity and are not felt. Parts of the city are also vulnerable to tsunamis; harbor areas were damaged by waves from the Valdivia earthquake in 1960.

Cityscape

Downtown Los Angeles-

Downtown Los Angeles- marks the geographic, governmental, and historic center of Los Angeles. Although it is the smallest region of Los Angeles by area, it includes a great variety of diverse neighborhoods, ranging from several modern skyscrapers of the Financial District to the historic structures of the Historic Core to the ethnic enclaves of Chinatown and Little Tokyo. It also contains many cultural attractions and entertainment venues. Downtown is also a center for local and regional transportation, with several freeways passing through and Union Station connecting regional trains to local buses and the metro Line.

East and Northeast Los Angeles-

To the east and northeast of Downtown Los Angeles and the Los Angeles River lies East Los Angeles. The region may sometimes be defined to include adjacent areas outside of the city boundaries of Los Angeles, such as Montebello and East Los Angeles. Many of the neighborhoods of Eastern Los Angeles house large Latino populations, although several neighborhoods, especially in northeast L.A., have more mixed populations. Many of the neighborhoods house very diverse residents. In the northern portions of Montecito Heights there are white populations of Italian and French descent. Eagle Rock also houses significant Latino, White, and Asian (in particular those of Filipino descent) populations and is one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Los Angeles County. In Monterrey Hills nearly half of the population is white. The population also ranges from working-class to affluent. The predominantly residential neighborhoods of the region contain many hills, especially in northern regions.

Northwest of Downtown-

Immediately west of Downtown Los Angeles lie some of the city's earliest suburbs. Angelino Heights and Echo Park were the locations of some of the first film studios west of the Mississippi River. Now mostly populated by Latino immigrants, a great amount of distinctive architecture has been preserved from the early 20th century, including the restored Victorian homes in Angelino Heights. This region is one of the most densely populated areas in Los Angeles and serves as the former site of Chavez Ravine which was historically a Latino neighborhood until it was demolished in the 1950s in order to construct Dodger Stadium.

Hollywood-

Formerly a religious colony, then an independent city, Hollywood was annexed by Los Angeles in 1910. Its name is synonymous with the motion picture industry, yet much of movie production has moved out to the neighboring LA communities in the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles. Tourists flock to Hollywood Boulevard to gaze up to the Hollywood sign in the Santa Monica Mountains. The last decade has brought new life to the once-struggling parts of the Hollywood district, with various developments taking advantage of new subway stations. The wealth of the neighborhoods here is strongly influenced by elevation; some of the wealthiest tracts in the country are up in the Hollywood Hills, with gradually less affluent population leading to pockets of large working-class and transient populations further southeast.

Harbor Gateway-

Following the Harbor Gateway south to the port leads to the Harbor area, an enclave of Los Angeles that is surrounded by various cities and towns. The land of the Harbor Gateway was annexed to the City of Los Angeles so that it would have a contiguous land connection with its seaport. The most prominent neighborhood of the harbor area is called San Pedro.

Los Feliz and Silver Lake-

Nestled between Hollywood and the Los Angeles River are a group of the city's older residential neighborhoods that houses Griffith Park, one of the nation's largest public parks.
Similar to most of the city, communities in this area are significantly wealthier closer to the hills. In this fashion, Los Feliz retained its expensive reputation while other districts further south and closer to Westlake were plagued by gang wars or crime. In the last decade, the area particularly around the Silver Lake Reservoir and now Sunset Boulevard has become closely associated with gentrification, a process which has pushed working-class families out due to high housing costs.

South Los Angeles-

South Los Angeles, formerly called "South Central Los Angeles", includes most of the city directly south of downtown, Interstate Highway 10 (the Santa Monica Freeway, and Wilshire Boulevard, but not those areas as far southeast as the Harbor Gateway, the Harbor Area, or the Port of Los Angeles. This area of Los Angeles is where most of its African-American population resides.

San Fernando Valley-

The largest region of the city is the San Fernando Valley, often referred to as "the Valley," and which includes portions of the Crescenta Valley. It is mainly suburban, and houses a wide-range of socioeconomic groups. It comprises almost half of the city's land area and about forty percent of the city's population. This area is sometimes referred to known as, "North Los Angeles" as the main suburbs of L.A. Mulholland Drive in the Santa Monica Mountains forms its southern boundary. It has gone through periodic clashes with the rest of the city over policy, culminating in a failed effort to incorporate as a city in 2002.

West Los Angeles-

is the part of the city encircled by Beverly Hills, West Hollywood and Wilshire on the east, and Santa Monica and the Pacific Ocean on the west, the Santa Monica Mountains on the north, and Culver City and El Segundo on the south.
While the area is inhabited by a wide range of socioeconomic groups, it undoubtedly houses the largest concentration of wealth in the city. Attracted by its rolling hills on the north end, and close proximity to the ocean, early developers succeeded in establishing some of the most upscale residential districts in the city and the county. Pre-eminent among these are Bel-Air and Pacific Palisades. Yet further south, pockets of working class areas remain in those areas closest to former industrial areas like those near South LA and Culver City.

Westside-

The term Westside, though often debated, refers to both the western parts of the city of Los Angeles as well as adjacent cities and towns, such as Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, and West Hollywood. West L.A. or West Los Angeles also refers to a specific neighborhood south of Brentwood and east of Santa Monica.

The Wilshire

Area lies north of the Santa Monica Freeway (Interstate 10), east of Beverly Hills, west of Downtown, and south of Hollywood.The Wilshire area is a collection of wealthy, middle, and working-class neighborhoods that cluster around Wilshire Boulevard. Unlike other parts of Los Angeles the wealthier neighborhoods are set not in the hills, but rather on leveled land north and south of Wilshire Boulevard, east of Beverly Hills such as Larchmont, Hancock Park, and Fremont Place. Koreatown is an example of a neighborhood undergoing a revival, with new condominiums being constructed on Wilshire Boulevard.

Landmarks/Points of Interests

While there are hundreds of historical landmarks and points of interests in the City of Angels, here are just a few that make the city.

Walt Disney Concert Hall-

Walt Disney Concert Hall
Walt Disney Concert Hall
The Walt Disney Concert Hall at 111 South Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles, California, is the fourth hall of the Los Angeles Music Center. Bounded by Hope Street, Grand Avenue, and 1st and 2nd Streets, it seats 2,265 people and serves (among other purposes) as the home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra and the Los Angeles Master Chorale.
Lillian Disney made an initial gift in 1987 to build a performance venue as a gift to the people of Los Angeles and a tribute to Walt Disney's devotion to the arts and to the city. The Frank Gehry-designed building opened on October 24, 2003. Both the architecture by Frank Gehry and the acoustics of the concert hall (designed by Yasuhisa Toyota) were praised in contrast to its predecessor, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.

The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels-

The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
A cathedral of the Roman Catholic Church in Los Angeles, California, United States. Opened in 2002, it is the mother church of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
The cathedral was built to replace the Cathedral of Saint Vibiana, which was severely damaged in the 1994 Northridge earthquake. In January 1995, the archdiocese announced plans to build a new cathedral on the St. Vibiana site and began demolishing the old cathedral; however, preservationists blocked the demolition, citing the building's landmark status, and demanded that the old cathedral be incorporated into a new structure. Citing the high cost of bringing the old cathedral to modern seismic standards, the archdiocese began looking for a new cathedral site.
It is mother church to over four million professed Catholics in the archdiocese. In addition to the church, the cathedral grounds also include a mausoleum, gift shop, cafeteria, conference center, and clergy residences. The relics of Saint Vibiana are interred in the mausoleum, as are the remains of several past bishops, archbishops, and auxiliary bishops of Los Angeles.

Angels Flight-

The funicular has operated on two different sites, using the same cars and iconic station elements. The original Angels Flight location, with tracks connecting Hill Street and Olive Street, operated from 1901 until it was closed in 1969, when its site was cleared for redevelopment. The second Angels Flight location opened nearby to the south in 1996, with tracks connecting Hill Street and California Plaza. It was re-closed in 2001, after a fatal accident, and took nine years to commence operations again, on March 15, 2010. It has been running safely since, except for another closure from June 10, 2011 to July 5, 2011, with 50 cents the cost of a one-way ride.

It has since been home to many premieres, including the 1977 launch of George Lucas's Star Wars, as well as birthday parties, corporate junkets and three Academy Awards ceremonies.

Crime

L.A SWAT
L.A SWAT

Like most American cities, Los Angeles has been experiencing significant decline in crime since the mid-1990s, and reached a 50-year low in 2009 with 314 homicides. This is a rate of 7.85 per 100,000 population—a major decrease from 1993, when the all-time high homicide rate of over 21.1 per 100,000 was reported for the year. This included 15 officer-involved shootings. One shooting led to the death of a SWAT team member, Randal Simmons, the first in LAPD's history.

The Los Angeles crime family dominated organized crime in the city during the Prohibition era and reached its peak during the 1940s and 1950s as part of the American Mafia but has gradually declined since then with the rise of various black and Hispanic gangs.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the city is home to 45,000 gang members, organized into 450 gangs. Among them are the Crips and Bloods, which are both African American street gangs that originated in South Los Angeles. Latino street gangs such as the Sureños, a Mexican American street gang, and Mara Salvatrucha, which has mainly members of Salvadoran descent, all originated in Los Angeles. The 18th Street has a predominately Latino membership but is multiethnic. This has led to the city being referred to as the "Gang Capital of America".

Felix strode into the Dodgers Stadium. There was no game on, and so it was a simple matter to get down to the field. He walked around the large area for a while, his eyes analysing its suitability as either a shelter, a stronghold, or an arena for a last stand. After a moment, he unsheathed the Rhino's Horn and began to train, the blade slicing and blurring through the air.

Standing on top of the staples center, hands positioned on her hips; Fantasy watched the city of angels. With the United States pushing for registration; the time to act was now, people would soon be pushing for the authorities to uphold the law. Eventually everyone would forget about why the country was formed in the first place…freedom.

@Fantasy Hopewell: Felix slowly crept up behind Fantasy, knife in hand. If she didn't hear him, he would put his arm around her neck and whisper "Well done, blondie, you're dead." The knife was still in its sheath, but the danger could have been all too real. If she did turn, he would grin, stick the sheathed knife back in his belt and simply ask. "What's up, goldilocks?"

Fan’s ear twitched just a bit causing her to halt turn to see someone had come up to greet her. “Nothing much, just making sure everything is good, um do I know you?” she asked politely with her hands folded.

@Fantasy Hopewell: He grinned. "No. I'd remember." He winked at her. "I'm with We Are Legend, the meta group that operates in this fine city. I'm sort of a welcoming committee to any visiting heroes. Plus I was kind of patrolling for crime. I'm Felix. And you?" He bowed graciously.

@Sideslash: She couldn't help but let out a smirk, she heard wall had the city pretty much wrapped up, but it couldn't hurt to operate inside the city. "The name is Fantasy, you can call me Fan" she said, stretching a bit. "The West Coast is a lot different than the east coast..." as she continued to gaze at the massive city of angels, she ran her hands through her goldenrod hair.

@Fantasy Hopewell: He smirked and reached behind his back. She could not have missed the surfboard sized mass of bandages on his back. He rapped on it with his knuckles, a few solid clangs sounding from it. "I've got an 80 pound wedge blade, a bulletproof coat that weighs around 20 pounds, and some serious training. Low level superspeed, too. Almost negligible, but it makes me faster up close." He stretched his arms out wide. "Plus I have my other knife and a chain with a sharp end. My training makes me a bit above what people call peak human." He thought for a moment, staring at her with a thoughtful smirk. "So, what can you do, other than look amazing in that suit?"

@Sideslash:As he spoke Fantasy simply nodded her head, impressed by his show of confidence as well as some of the experience he had. "I can fly, I'm incredibly strong; I can control and be one with light...and depending on the zodiac, I can use a random skill"

@Fantasy Hopewell: Felix looked up at the sky. "Flight." He said absent mindedly. "Always wondered what it would be like to fly." He smiled at Fantasy. "So, where'd you get your powers from?"

@Sideslash: "I was born with them, they made going to school a bit rough, but you know I worked through them" Fantasy said, wiping her blowing hair from her face. "So are you going to show me around, or are you just going to make idle chatter" she said, with a bright smile on her face, hovering in the air.

@Fantasy Hopewell: He nodded. "No doubt. I never went to school. Well, not normal school." He grinned. "How silly of me. I'll show you the sights, shall I?" He looked down. "Don't suppose I could hitch a ride, could I?" He was counting on his charm to win over Fantasy.

@Sideslash: "Fine, but don't pull my hair" she said, gently allowing him to straddle her. Flying swiftly into the city, she glanced back just a bit. "Where to first"

@Fantasy Hopewell: "Don't worry," He grinned cockily. "I'll be gentle." He looked around. "Well, you've got the Walt Disney Concert Hall over that way, or the Cathedral in that direction, Dolby theater over there..." He thought for a minute. "Hey! You wanna check out the observatory?"

The renegade ronin hangs upside down under the Vincent Thomas bridge. Eyes closed, meditating as she sways in the wind, held above the water only by a single cord of artificial spiderweb.

@The_Lost_LeBeau: Very suddenly, the gravity shifted, the water under the bridge started to fall like rain down on the ronin slowly. Bare feet slapped down on the cold stone each step as it got closer, a being with red hair and a technicolor trench coat. Without saying anything, it stared at the woman with a raised brow as she had her eyes closed.

A soft rainfall patters upon his broad back. His hunched frame acts as a form of umbrella with a series of overhanging rags for a patch of graves in one of the many hallowed sites in the City of Angels. His massive frame bends further down as he caresses the earth with his hands. He puts his forehead to the ground, whispering to the dead.

@TheRumor: Drifting up to the bridge, landing, standing upside down in the unnatural rain.

Opens her eyes, looking the figure up and down.

@The_Lost_LeBeau: "So lost, so lost.." It's voice was perhaps the most tranquil noises of all time, or at least it see,ed like that at this time and place. "Why does the lost one seek the woman of plants?" It stared almost like a doll into her eyes, unmoving from it's neutral stance.

@The_Lost_LeBeau: "Blossoms in the air, the big apple, a knight with a bat for a head..Has it happened? Has it yet to happen..It seems I too am lost in time.." It admitted that it wasn't certain if he was in the past, present or future. "You know of the knight with the bat for a head yes?". Around them, the droplets of water suddenly cease in midair.

@TheRumor: Shaking her head, the ornate robes of the Vatican Assassin rustling with the motion. "Your speaking in riddles. And you haven't left me any clues."

@The_Lost_LeBeau: "A madhouse.." It says plainly as they were now standing in the middle of Sandbury sanitarium, however everything still seemed frozen. The two were standing in a cell were the plant vixen Spross was on the cold floor in distress, weak. On the other side of the door was the lost ronin as she was just about to open it. "The lost one picks the flower from a harsh garden..But why?" It ponders as it kneels down to look at Spross who was frozen in place, like a freeze frame.

@The_Lost_LeBeau: "You will find if you answer my questions, I will be more obliged to answer yours.." It said with a stern brow, no longer in the cell, they were now standing on the head of a massive Spross, other then that there was nothing but darkness surrounding them, the Spross they stood know was on her knees, clutching her arms as if cold. "What, does she mean to you?".

@TheRumor: Riddles were over. Josephine LeBeau's jaw was clenched in rage, and her eyes were bright with a terrible light. But her discipline never wavered. "She's an old friend. From the days when I had none."

The lich emperor begins to test his depleted power by raising a few of the fresher dead. Just a handful to test his boundaries. Three creatures mankind has grown accustomed to calling zombies. Ragged strips of flesh over a disheveled skeleton, eyes swollen, mouth agape. Dumb. But at least he could keep them from falling apart.

@The_Lost_LeBeau: "On the night you pick the flower from the harsh garden, you wil be confronted by a knight with the head of a bat..It is he who will try and take this flower away from you..You will all stand on a big apple, standing at opposite sides..I will be there, she will be there, he will be there and you, will be there..This is your future, but this is my past and present, I am there as we speak..Lost one, you must not make enemies with the knight who has a bat for a head..Diplomacy, and reasoning..But confilct must be avoided.." From the hair of the massive Spross that they stood upon, flew hundreds of bats.

@TheRumor: 'I see." Crosses her arms, jaw still clenched. "You've had your answer. Now I need mine."

"Where. Is. Spross."
