Los Angeles is reclaiming some car space to allocate it to walking and hanging out. Work is underway on three new plazas, located in Pacoima, North Hollywood, and South Los Angeles’ Leimert Park.

The plazas are the work of the city Transportation Department’s (LADOT) [People St](http://peoplest.lacity.org/) program. Under People St, community organizations apply to host city-built plaza, parklet, and bike corral projects. Based on city resources and project readiness, the city selects a limited number of projects to proceed each year. *([Read the rest … including who the awardees are … here)](http://la.streetsblog.org/2015/01/14/work-underway-on-three-new-ladot-people-st-plazas/)*
