The success of Los Angeles is dependent
of the validity of our individual value system and the appropriate
role of our institutions. It is a city without cathedrals and
palaces, without formal gardens or physical fortifications, it
is a city with conviction and determination resulting from the
strength which is an aggregate of its parts. The experiment here
will have to show if our mosaic society can describe an overall
desirable image within the language of our society and not that
of an outmoded classical expression. (Neutra Institute).
