This local restaurant has bunch of old LA photos and this map. I don’t think they know what it’s a map of.

Oh no. Oh no!

If you're going to hang that up, I could say it would be fine with an explainer of what it was, but Oh no!

gooneybird.bsky.social•100 days ago

I'd say tell them, then on your next visit check to see if it's still hanging. If they are still proudly displaying it, maybe consider if they are worthy of your patronage.

jaypee.bsky.social•100 days ago

Oh no

tobyhardtospell.bsky.social•99 days ago

I am so curious what restaurant this is now

jonathaneby.bsky.social•99 days ago

I nice one full of lovely immigrants whom I don’t want the internet to go after

tobyhardtospell.bsky.social•99 days ago

100% understandable! I’m definitely going to keep an eye out for it when we go out to eat next time though

jonathaneby.bsky.social•99 days ago

Check the bathrooms in the westside.

Fires?

This is the Homeowner's Loan Corporation mortgage rating map, colloquially known as a redlining map. It was used to do racism in home lending. https://www.sanleandro.org/1088/What-is-Redlining#:~:text=Red%20was%20the%20lowest%20rating,occupation%20of%20those%20living%20there.

stoneape314.bsky.social•100 days ago

Holy shit!

nightpups.bsky.social•73 days ago

Yeah that was pretty much my response when I first learned about it.

cstarks.bsky.social•100 days ago

I wonder what they think it is. A soil map? Art? It would be fascinating to know the answer

maxdubler.com•100 days ago

oh NO

jonathaneby.bsky.social•100 days ago

I don’t have the heart to tell ‘em

julienurse12.bsky.social•100 days ago

They put it in a cute frame and thought they had an aesthetic.

enricofermi.bsky.social•100 days ago

I give up. What is it, other than a map of the LA area in earlier days?

enricofermi.bsky.social•100 days ago

Ah, I see. Yes that doesn't seem appropriate for a restaurant display.

rainsurname.bsky.social•100 days ago

You should absolutely ask them if they know what it means.

graymattersrep.bsky.social•100 days ago

It would be even worse if they did

Oh my gosh what a fabulous and dystopian clothing line concept.

I went to Cal for urban planning and have been looking for, um, planners with a sense of humor. So this is wonderful; many thanks ;)

njsmith.bsky.social•72 days ago

You’re in the right place.

bellhookedme.bsky.social•95 days ago

Ha! We miss your humor in class, Max!

imeverytuna.bsky.social•100 days ago

Gotta get this banger on the butterfly app for posterity? :D

maxdubler.com•100 days ago

of course

Seattle's "1 Line" light rail route was originally going to be the "Red Line" until they realised that it passed right through an area that had been historically affected by redlining. It's green on maps now.

A new reason why the latest generation may not understand your joke 😠

borners.bsky.social•100 days ago

North American Planner maybe. When I hear red lining I think Japanese commercial zone (the best zone)
