Is it suburban sprawl at its worst, or 21st century housing at its best? WHICH WAY, L.A.? host WARREN OLNEY goes on the road on Thursday, March 21 at the OMNI Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. The event topic will focus on the controversial Ahmanson Ranch development as part of the Los Angeles County Bar Association's Environmental Law Super Symposium. Developers tout a huge, but carefully planned community with massive open space. Critics see traffic and massive environmental impact stretching to the ocean. Join KCRW and LACBA to discuss these questions with supporters and critics.
