By 1975, according to its plans: You will be able to shop in a mall that once was San Fernando Rd.; Or catch a glimpse of a new convention hall while driving past on the Golden State freeway; Or browse in an open-air Mexican market place; Or catch a bus or helicopter from a new central transportation depot. These are serious plans to meet a serious situation."
