L.A.'s Telco Hotel Dilemma

"In downtown Los Angeles, history is giving way to technology as vacant or underutilized buildings are being filled with telecommunications switching equipment. Some argue that they will bring jobs and spending into downtown. Others worry that these "telco hotels" will stem the flow of life back into the central city. Will a proposed ordinance send projects fleeing to neighboring cities, or create a balance of technology and human beings? We'll hear how high technology is reshaping the American landscape, from developers, representatives of the city's business and civic sector, and an economist who's written on the effects of the digital revolution." A streaming audio version is of the broadcast is available on the website.
