In the wake of the devastating wildfires that have ravaged Los Angeles County, Governor Gavin Newsom has unveiled an ambitious initiative dubbed the “Reimagining LA 2.0” to reconstruct the city. This plan, which he refers to as “reimagining LA 2.0,” aims to rebuild the city with a focus on modernization and resilience, particularly in anticipation of the 2028 Olympics and the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Instead of soviet style high rises, how about turn that Pallisade area into a memorial park.

Let's not forget to accommodate the multitude of homeless too. A few Section-8 Cabrini Green/Pruitt Igoe style housing complexes should be part of the mix.

The title alone is a nonsensical word salad. Did he already have an LA 2.0 and now they are ready for the new and improved re-imagined LA 2.0? How about LA 2.1? Or, for major releases it gets stepped up to 3.0.
His word salad at the end was like a random string of buzzwords that added up to "We have plans but we don't know what they are yet."

Great Newsom, but leave US taxpayers out of your Marshall Plan. US taxpayers are not insurers for your incompetence and communist policy failures.

Is this some evidence that the WEF has it's eyes on a 'Soviet' style city of block houses, and EV chargers? Not surprising that Newsom jumped in with both feet and hair gel.

#1: my thought as well. Additionally every government official who had a hand in this debacle should be given new jobs as janitors in these buildings; they can live there as well in apartments located in the bowels of the buildings. No penthouse for Gavin et al.

To provide some perspective: from Karen Bass 2022 campaign for Mayor:
Bass said her political experience would allow her to build coalitions across multiple levels of government to address homelessness. Bass said she would work to “build more temporary, affordable, and permanent supportive housing,” “house 15,000 people by the end of year one, dramatically reduce street homelessness, end street encampments, [and] lead on mental health and substance abuse treatment.”
To address public safety, Bass said she would hire more police officers, invest in programs to address causes of crime, and establish an Office of Community Safety “to develop a neighborhood-specific strategy to re-envision public safety, and ensure that the needs of individual communities are met.”
In a debate, Bass said, “when I look at the negatives, I also see that as an opportunity. An opportunity for jobs, for example. We have environmental goals we need to accomplish in the next decade-and-a-half. That’s an opportunity for jobs.”

He will have to start by imagining where the money is coming from. Unfortunately, not much from insurance companies, and Joe Biden is no longer able to put it on the endless national credit card. Commentator Chris Matthews once said proudly that Republicans will never be able to out-promise the Democrats because no matter the price tag, Democrats will always promise more.

I immediatly had visions of the "20-minute city" concept where everything you need is within circle with a 3.1 mile (5 kilometer) radius, or a 20-minute public transportation ride or bicycle ride away. You have no need for a car, so are essentially a prisoner within that circle. Leftist politicians have been itching to prove this concept for years. Now is their chance.

A new “Marshal Plan” sounds great, but who will be expected to pay the freight for that?
Badmouthing Trump does not appear to be a smart way to get additional Federal funds for California. No doubt California will bring in and use huge numbers of Mexican crews to remove the debris.

I will continue to believe that this disaster was executed as planned and ordered. It would be interesting to know which celebrities, super-rich or politicos living in the affected areas were conveniently 'somewhere else' when literal Hell broke loose.

The Olympics!! Why is Newsom talking about a topic other than recovery when thousands of LA residents have lost everything? Watch out when democrats use words like “reimagine” and “smart strategy.” That is code for less safety, a crackdown on individual liberties and higher taxes.

As long as he doesn't expect the rest of the country to pay for it...what a wanker....wonder where he left his fiddle while LA burned??Maybe like the 'estates' you see in all the Brit shows...high rises with narrow 'shotgun' type apartments....the one thing I take away from those shows is that I couldn't live like that...

Do NOT expect every other state to pay for California's rebuilding what California's mismanagement/ignorance/stupidity caused. This is largely the fault of the Sierra Club and like organizations for squealing like a stuck pig every time someone proposed 1) cleaning out the brush, dead trees and flammable detritus in the hills surrounding and in LA, and 2) making the abundant water sources that California has available to the actual human inhabitants of the state, rather than some bait fish (i.e., bait minnow) that may - or may not - actually still exist, if it ever did! This is ALL on you, California.

Chances are some big international investment organization will purchase the land where the destroyed houses were situated and will rebuild those areas to their liking that will take years. Who knows China might even purchase those areas?

Since his election, Biden and the Democrats have made no secret of their desire to destroy the suburbs as we know them. Never mind that living in the suburbs is part of the American Dream, and people work their tails off to get to live there. Dems have been demanding the suburbs be more Diverse, Equitable and Inclusive. That means taking local control from the people who live there and pay the taxes, and having unelected government bureaucrats make rules, They planned on TELLING communities what they must allow, such as multifamily housing and more dense populations per neighborhood.
Learn more about how Democrats planned to remake the suburbs by seizing local control. Residents who lost their homes might want to watch their Democrat leaders very closely, now that they're talking about "Reimagining" LA. Might be better to reimagine what competent leadership looks like.

Let me get this straight; this Brylcreem boob Newsom all of a sudden, has a plan to fix this deadly mess that he is solely responsible for? Even before the fire is out? That tells me that this plan was in place way before the flames started! Ladies and gentlemen of California, Newsom should be the absolute last person on earth that you should rely on to fix what’s left of your city! In any event, let’s hold off on this reimagining baloney until the fire is out and all the dead people are accounted for!

We suspected the fires were deliberate, and this confirms it.
Google around and look at what the city planners are to do to LA.
It would make Albert Speer proud.

Newsom should be "reimagining" his career, maybe as a trash hauler cleaning up the debris of the city he helped destroy. He should resign and never hold public office again.

While the city is still burning, Newsom rolls out a fully formed plan to reimagine and build a city of the future where Angelenos' homes and businesses once stood? Was the plan all along to save the cost of demolition by just letting it all burn? "Oh look. Isn't that convenient that it is all gone! I just happen to have a plan here in my back pocket." Yeah right.
