i picked up the may issue of LA magazine yesterday, and discovered this fun poll.

64 Greatest Things in L.A. - Los Angeles Magazine

it is structured like a basketball tournament office pool, so the original 64 LA to Z - The 64 Greatest Things About LA - Los Angeles Magazine have been whittled down to "the sweet sixteen." here are the results, as they currently stand: (my picks )

amoeba music vs.
disney hall

grauman's chinese vs.
langer's

capital records vs
MOCA

huntington gardens vs.
spaceland

---------------------------------------------------------------------

pinks vs
the beach

mccabe's vs
chateau marmont

la brea bakery vs.
hollywood forever screenings

the weather vs
pacific coast hwy

the next round of voting begins tomorrow if you want to participate in the official poll, but i hope you will share your responses here, in any event.
