It may very well get more dense but Manhattan dense? I doubt it.

Manhattan is more constrained in size than LA and its population declined from 1910 to 1980 (its picked up since but is still well off the peak). Just having a limit to how spread out a city is doesn't mean its population density keeps growing for ever.


I didn't say as dense as Manhattan. What I said is that a subway will encourage LA's density to increase. In fact, that was one of the reasons Manhattan became so dense.....the development of subways.
