It'll be clean for those 2 weeks and then after everyone goes home? 💥🤮☠️💩 Karen Bass and Democrats says y'all don't deserve to live in a clean & safe city.
I am parisian and for the 2024 Olympic Games they took all of the homeless people out of the city 2 weeks prior the olympics. Same for the cleaning part. Lol...
Los Angeles doesn't need new buildings for the 2028 Olympics. What they need is transportation without using private transportation. Public Transportation is the key on transporting hundreds of thousands of Olympic visitors for every venue.
Dear god, no. Public transportation, like everything the government touches, is a horror show. You aren't going to trap me in some train or bus with the lunatics and lack of law enforcement down there.
Traffic was virtually nonexistent for the 1984 LA Games, as trucks and delivery vehicles were not allowed on freeways from 11pm - 6am during the Games. Most employers had their employees work from home as much as possible and that was before remote work was a thing. Also, many LA residents travelled out of the City during the Games. In the height of normal rush hours the freeways were wide open, as it was the lightest traffic in LA in my lifetime despite predictions of horrible traffic. The freeways were not as extensive nor wide as currently exists nor was the Metro system in existence in 1984.
@@dorothygale1104 and also, as a fellow Angeleno, let's forever WFH (work from home)!!! Quarantine traffic was like heaven. Like a LA I never recognized.
Paris built an Olympic village to counter the housing crisis and turn it into social and affordable housing. LA28: “we’re not going to build an Olympic village”. Also LA: “we e got a housing crisis and 70’000 homeless” 🤔
I went to UCLA. Those luxury dorms will do just fine. But the food won't cut it. I know UCLA is like best college food in the nation but those are low standards.
Yeah but the athletes and media villages in Paris were privately funded and privately built as real-estate transit oriented developments as part of the city-region's "Grand Paris" initiative and "Grand Paris Express" massive transit expansion project. Both are entire neighborhoods (the athletes village being the largest by far), with private, semi-social, social and student housing, offices, administrations, services and shops. The main difference with most previous Olympic villages is that in Paris they are major private real-estate developments that just happen to be briefly used as Olympic villages, instead of being public white elephant projects built for the Olympics that then try to find an uncertain second life. There's housing for 6000 or 7000 people in the Athletes village new neighborhood, and currently for about 1500 - 2000 people in the media village. Though the neighborhood that was the media village will continue to grow in the coming years to coincide with the arrival of new nearby metro stations on the entirety new tangential or circular express metro lines of the humongous Grand Paris Express metro expansion project. The villages shouldn't even be counted in the Paris 2024 because of the private funding, but they are. LA should have done the same and rehabilitate two entire areas by offering developers to privately build the athletes' and media villages to really try to help with the housing crisis. Preferably on or close to an LA Metro line, either an existing or new station. A quasi instantaneous availability of thousands of new apartments, all in extremely well built and eco-friendly buildings, should have a "shock cooling effect" on the housing market and crisis, even if it's only a tiny portion of the housing demand. (in Paris they've built following future regulations that should only be applied in 2 decades or so) What will be the LA28's legacy? A pair of new neighborhoods would have been great. When visiting Paris athletes' village, Mayor Karen Bass seemed to almost regret not building one for LA. Because it's a pretty quick and easy fix that the city can shape to its liking, while not paying for it, and that can maybe kickstart a housing development boom or at least a spike. Anyway, in Paris they've used mostly private funds and a bit if public funds, for the Olympics, to build very few infrastructures,but that were needed by the city for years. Like the sanitation upgrade, the sewer overflow prevention basin and tunnel system, the midsized modular arena, and several schools' sporting facilities and public pools renovations, etc. All of which were needed and some long overdue. The new midsize arena hosted unrelated events even before the Olympics and is already booked well into 2025 so it will pay for itself. It's also the new permanent home to the Paris Basketball team.
Everytime LA has bided for the Olympics, no other cities bided. And every time LA hosted, it turned a profit. Who bidded in 2028, LA only, it has always been the savior city for the Olympics because of when no cities can't/wont host it, LA will. Its been very successful the past two times, no reason it can't be for the next.
There is some misformation there. The distance between Paris and Marseille is less than 500 miles, it takes 3 hours by train (from downtown to downtown) and 1h15, 1h30 by plane depending on the airport. The distance between Los Angeles and Oklahoma City is more than 1700 miles, it takes between 2h30 and 3h by plane. I'm not saying it's a catastrophe but it's clearly not 100% fair to say it's the same travelling time...
What about the Surfing competition that was held in Tahiti? That was the farthest distance between the sporting venue and the host city in Olympic history. Besides, the distance between Oklahoma City and LA is irrelevant as few (if any) spectators will be traveling between LA and Oklahoma to see Softball and Canoeing events. Also, in the Paris Games basketball and soccer games were held at venue throughout France. For the 2028 LA Games soccer games will be held at various venues throughout California with the semi-final and final games to be held at the Rose Bowl just as was the case in the 1984 LA Games. No Olympic Games has staged 100% of the events within the host city.
@@dorothygale1104this is not what he said. He said there is misinformation from the journalists about the time to go to Lille and Marseille : - some basket and some handball were in Lille (1hour by train from Paris). And the sailing was in marseille (3 hour per train). This is definitely closer than what is expected in Los Angeles for some sports It is definitely a good idea to spread some games in other regions because the local population feels associated to the Olympics games and that increase the number of spectators. (Like the record attendance for women football or handball we had during Paris Olympics). In Lille, we had all the population from the neighboring countries Belgium Netherlands Germany Poland coming to the Olympics. That was a huge success. It is also a good idea to use facilities in other regions that are already built (rather to build new ones). BUT the journalists in this video were lying about the time and the distance to go to marseille and Lille. (I don’t count Tahiti because … well the surfers were pleased to surf on one of the best wave in the world 😅😊).
Why not build temporary housing for the homeless? Then when we can also use that after the Olympics as a stepping stone to get the homeless back on their feet again. Many homeless are just down on their luck and need people to help them get back up. Helping them is also helping ourselves.
I wish the best for L.A 2028 but I'm afraid they're waking up late. There are only 4 years left and a colossal work to plan and carry out (transport, security, venues etc.)
@@AllenHanPR I don't know if 90% is the correct number, but the premise is absolutely true. Other states have been putting their homeless on greyhounds and sending them off to California for decades. It's a regular practice

Lots of "creative statements" here... Marseille is not a 2 hour flight away from Paris, it only takes a 1 hour flight, and 3 hours by high-speed train. The more I hear Wasserman talk about the 2024 games, the further Marseille gets from Paris and the larger the budget is supposed to have ballooned in his mind. In a couple weeks he'll be saying Marseille is 5 hours away from Paris, and the budget has quadrupled... 🤣 He'll be right at home in Marseille, as being called a "Marseillais" means having a tendency to severely exaggerate things... It's just that Marseille is located on the Mediterranean coast with beautiful clear, blue water, and usually considered as the second city of the country. It's also "THE" French city that has had a never-ending inferiority complex with Paris and a misplaced rivalry. So, hosting some events in Marseille was a way of patting the city on the back, or Paris (and the rest of France) wouldn't hear the end of it. In 2 hours flying from Paris you've reached Madrid... There's sailing possible only 100 miles away from Paris where the Atlantic Ocean and English Channel meet. Or 20 miles further in cities like Le Touquet, which is nicknamed "Paris Plage" (Paris Beach), as it had been the primary coastal, horse racing, and casino destination for wealthy Parisians since the late 19th and early 20th century. France is called the hexagon, and 3 of its 6 sides are coastlines, half of it is closer to Paris than Marseille. The Mediterranean coast is the most distant one from Paris in the mainland. The Paris 2024 budget did not double, far from it, and the athletes and media villages were privately funded as real-estate transit oriented developments as part of Greater Paris' "Grand Paris" initiative and "Grand Paris Express" transit expansion project. They are built with the goal of helping to reduce the current housing crisis in the metro area. They shouldn't even be included in the budget, being built by private companies, with private funding, and as housing, offices, and shops. They are major private urban developments that happen to briefly serve for the Olympics, and not public developments looking for an uncertain second life. The venue were they held swimming races, the Paris la Défense Arena, which is a huge indoor sports (mostly rugby) and concert arena, has a capacity over 45k (it's the largest indoor arena in Europe), and they initially wanted just as many spectators. But for Olympic competitions there needs to be a large training pool nearby for athletes to swim and cool down after races. This pool must be hidden from the public and in the same location because athletes should be back in the pool minutes after finishing a race. Therefore, a substantial portion of the arena wasn't open to the public and hidden behind temporary bleachers on one of the 4 sides. I'm pretty sure it's going to be the same for LA... 4 years before the games, Paris too thought they could have 40k spectators for swimming, then IOC and FINA's requirements made the plans change. Also, Paris did not just hide or export their unhoused. There was a program to develop kinds of halfway accommodations, spread out in many cities, with extensive social worker programs. None of the unhoused people that were moved to other cities were left without a roof over their head. Though it's really different from LA, as working unhoused people are much more rare in Paris. Unhoused people there consist mostly of desocialized people, and refugees. Unhoused people that had jobs or strong ties to Paris were offered other solutions locally. 100% of what was spent on infrastructure, which is not much anyway, answered a previous need of the city outside the games and sometimes long overdue. Like a sewer overflow prevention basin and tunnel system near the riverr. A midsized aquatic and diving center in the poorest districts. And a midsized modular sports and concert arena in the renewed Northern edges of the core's 18th district to permanently host the Paris Basketball team that lacked a home arena and training center. This new arena is already booked well into 2025 for sports events, concerts, conventions, etc. It's already paying for itself and had hosted unrelated events even before the games. All these would have been built either way, Olympics or not, but the 2024 games accelerated the process. So these Olympics weren't "no new building" games, but "no new constructions that weren't already needed" ganes. One last thing to keep in mind is that federal (and probably also state level) security expenses seem not to be counted in LA 2028's budget. Whereas everything from national, regional, and local security, plus privately funded things, were all counted in Paris 2024 budget. It also included all developments needed even if Paris didn't host the Olympics, like the improved sanitation system, schools' sporting facilities, historical sites renovations, etc.
I can't beleive it costs several Billion dollars. With 1 billion you could build small homeless communities with tiny houses with solar led lights in a camp like setting. The houses wouldn't have plumbing or power . There will be one building for bathrooms and 1 building for laundry so plumbing is centralized.
This is a Great Opportunity for some new Infrastructure to be implemented. I'm from Brisbane which is hosting 2032 using existing Infrastructure but it looks like new builds will be cheaper than existing as they just dont have the capacity.
He’s bragging about how much more money LOS ANGELES has from sports than Paris… how insensitive is that when you have seventy thousands sleeping on the streets in LA… so sports are more important? This is why people hate us Americans aside from jealousy, it’s arrogance.
In addition to the homeless humans, there is a crisis with pets -- living on the streets, languishing in the shelters, and the person in charge of the L.A. Animal Control (Staycee Dains) does nothing to help. So, please Mayor Bass, multi-task and tackle the crises facing humans and animals. Not just for the Olympics, but to show basic decency.
@@MATTXxX99 there’s a difference between wild and domesticated animals. There’s already a problem with feces all over the streets from people, adding to it with pets that shouldn’t be strays doesn’t help.
Last time I was at in LA, my car was broken into in a fenced lot, with security guards and cameras, the cameras got the thief’s license plate and even with all that the police refused to even look into the incident. Seriously. That’s pathetic
we can barely fill pot holes, trim trees or fix sidewalks! realistically they'll just shove our problems under the rug like newsom did with the president of china came to SF. i do appreciate your optimism, though!
Just hope LA doesn't repeat same issues as Paris. No AC in Athletes' village, no cardboard bed, no AC in the athletes transportation bus to venues, and shortage of meat. Last LA Olympic had many issues too, hopefully the organizers have learned.
It is actually Illegal in California for buildings to be without AC, most AC units have to be fixed immediately, even if you rent a home, that home has to have AC or the landlord can get in trouble.
This is America not Europe, we have AC lol, also the US electrical grid is interconnected (except Texas) so there will be some diversion for the power to LA.
No AC in Europe( except in south Europe) is just because the climate is too fresh here except 2 weeks a year and it’s not ecologic and economic too have AC everywhere as in California.
Dude, a lot of stadiums in LA needs to be reconstructed because they're so old. Los Angeles memorial coliseum is failed when compared to Stade de France stadium in Paris. LA is like stuck up in the 60's or 70's, and never got out of it. Even the metro systems in many cities in Asia are way more modern than metro system in the U.S.
You know nothing about LA. The Colosseum was renovated several years ago by USC at a cost of around $400 million. LA Metro has one of the newest metros in the world, and it has been growing steadily over 34 years. Both the D and B lines are getting new trains this year. The D line is also currently being extended.
@@mrxman581 LA, one of the newest metros in the World? LMAO, please...have you ever been outside of U.S.? I know LA because I've lived there. I've been traveled outside of U.S. in recent years, and I can tell you that there are many cities that are way more modern than LA, especially cities in Asia.
@@vziowong China friend, You can't compare LA to Asia because the whole Asia was only built 30-50 years ago. I live in LA and have also lived in China 7 years, also Korea and Japan. China has "nice" trains and subways but like I said, those were only built 5-10, if not 20-30 some years ago. However Chinese things are only surface nice, they don't last long. The high speed trains may have USB ports next the seats, but they don't work. Faucets don't always work nor come with soap. And the squatty hole WCs smell like a portapotty. Which country are you referring to exactly? If you think LA's is old, don't bother going to NYC or east coast.
You people should really do your homework before you start reporting. The opening ceremonies will be in Sofi Stadium not the Colosseum. The Colosseum will host track and field and closing ceremonies.

Now arrested and citation ain’t going to help be Some where else like Burbank. I’m not saying anything on Side of Debate on Trump clear those don’t Have enough requirements to be able to work and Reduce the number of people can get those Need help then advantage of the system that’s pretty much why homelessness is increasing. But Harris, sorry I messed that name up. Just going to take wayy more to provide everyone to get into housing and Supporting Services which needed way more then everyone Thinks.

Therefore, a substantial portion of the arena wasn't open to the public and hidden behind temporary bleachers on one of the 4 sides.
I'm pretty sure it's going to be the same for LA...
4 years before the games, Paris too thought they could have 40k spectators for swimming, then IOC and FINA's requirements made the plans change.
Also, Paris did not just hide or export their unhoused. There was a program to develop kinds of halfway accommodations, spread out in many cities, with extensive social worker programs.
None of the unhoused people that were moved to other cities were left without a roof over their head.
Though it's really different from LA, as working unhoused people are much more rare in Paris. Unhoused people there consist mostly of desocialized people, and refugees.
Unhoused people that had jobs or strong ties to Paris were offered other solutions locally.
100% of what was spent on infrastructure, which is not much anyway, answered a previous need of the city outside the games and sometimes long overdue.
Like a sewer overflow prevention basin and tunnel system near the riverr.
A midsized aquatic and diving center in the poorest districts.
And a midsized modular sports and concert arena in the renewed Northern edges of the core's 18th district to permanently host the Paris Basketball team that lacked a home arena and training center.
This new arena is already booked well into 2025 for sports events, concerts, conventions, etc. It's already paying for itself and had hosted unrelated events even before the games.
All these would have been built either way, Olympics or not, but the 2024 games accelerated the process.
So these Olympics weren't "no new building" games, but "no new constructions that weren't already needed" ganes.
One last thing to keep in mind is that federal (and probably also state level) security expenses seem not to be counted in LA 2028's budget.
Whereas everything from national, regional, and local security, plus privately funded things, were all counted in Paris 2024 budget. It also included all developments needed even if Paris didn't host the Olympics, like the improved sanitation system, schools' sporting facilities, historical sites renovations, etc.

I can't beleive it costs several Billion dollars. With 1 billion you could build small homeless communities with tiny houses with solar led lights in a camp like setting. The houses wouldn't have plumbing or power . There will be one building for bathrooms and 1 building for laundry so plumbing is centralized.

This is a Great Opportunity for some new Infrastructure to be implemented. I'm from Brisbane which is hosting 2032 using existing Infrastructure but it looks like new builds will be cheaper than existing as they just dont have the capacity.
Can’t wait for the 2028 Olympics.
No only the homeless but the teens that are attacking people out on the streets!!
The eBike Brigade
The guy that got attacked probably tried to crash them or threaten them. If yall dont don’t do nothing to them y’all should be good😃
How about teens setting off fireworks in dry grass and shrubs during fire season in SoCal!
I can't wait for the homeless to be magically removed for a month. Maybe I can finally go to DTLA as a LA resident.
The homeless will move in the same way they were moved in San Francisco for the leaders from Asia.
if the us exist in 4 years from now i think its exactly the solution they are going for :D

He’s bragging about how much more money LOS ANGELES has from sports than Paris… how insensitive is that when you have seventy thousands sleeping on the streets in LA… so sports are more important? This is why people hate us Americans aside from jealousy, it’s arrogance.
It’s liberal democratic policy
Bro we just finished these Olympics, let’s chill for a sec LA.
Y’all are so goofy
4 years can fly by..gotta start prepping and planning now.
1 sec? Ok time's up, time to prepare for olympics again GO GO GO
4 years is already pushing it.
Think about it, the world is coming to our city,
You have to plan ahead
LOL Westwood is definitely not centrally located, its as far from Long Beach as you can get in LA.
In addition to the homeless humans, there is a crisis with pets -- living on the streets, languishing in the shelters, and the person in charge of the L.A. Animal Control (Staycee Dains) does nothing to help. So, please Mayor Bass, multi-task and tackle the crises facing humans and animals. Not just for the Olympics, but to show basic decency.
Animals are Supposed to live outside 😂
@@MATTXxX99 there’s a difference between wild and domesticated animals. There’s already a problem with feces all over the streets from people, adding to it with pets that shouldn’t be strays doesn’t help.
Basic decency isn’t too popular among liberal politicians in Cali
I wonder how many tourists cars are going to be broken into 🤦
Bass already said the focus will be heavily on public transport
All of them
@@S.Clause sadly you are probably right
Last time I was at in LA, my car was broken into in a fenced lot, with security guards and cameras, the cameras got the thief’s license plate and even with all that the police refused to even look into the incident. Seriously. That’s pathetic
@@tomdavis8757 its sad. We had to pay for these lazy people that will not work for their things
La is so dramatic. I’m sure we will do great, will be insane
we can barely fill pot holes, trim trees or fix sidewalks! realistically they'll just shove our problems under the rug like newsom did with the president of china came to SF. i do appreciate your optimism, though!
@@SoCalCubanGrrl They did the same in Rio and Paris, so why not LA.
Oh it’ll be insane alright. We can at least agree on that
So much honesty in these comments 😢 I’m 😢 sorry all of you have to endure this for the next 4 years until the Olympics arrive.
Just hope LA doesn't repeat same issues as Paris. No AC in Athletes' village, no cardboard bed, no AC in the athletes transportation bus to venues, and shortage of meat. Last LA Olympic had many issues too, hopefully the organizers have learned.
It is actually Illegal in California for buildings to be without AC, most AC units have to be fixed immediately, even if you rent a home, that home has to have AC or the landlord can get in trouble.
This is America not Europe, we have AC lol, also the US electrical grid is interconnected (except Texas) so there will be some diversion for the power to LA.
No AC in Europe( except in south Europe) is just because the climate is too fresh here except 2 weeks a year and it’s not ecologic and economic too have AC everywhere as in California.
Stfu the cardboard bed is an ioc issue lol they were there in Tokyo
Poor babies!
Dude, a lot of stadiums in LA needs to be reconstructed because they're so old. Los Angeles memorial coliseum is failed when compared to Stade de France stadium in Paris. LA is like stuck up in the 60's or 70's, and never got out of it. Even the metro systems in many cities in Asia are way more modern than metro system in the U.S.
You know nothing about LA. The Colosseum was renovated several years ago by USC at a cost of around $400 million.
LA Metro has one of the newest metros in the world, and it has been growing steadily over 34 years. Both the D and B lines are getting new trains this year. The D line is also currently being extended.
@@mrxman581 LA, one of the newest metros in the World? LMAO, please...have you ever been outside of U.S.? I know LA because I've lived there. I've been traveled outside of U.S. in recent years, and I can tell you that there are many cities that are way more modern than LA, especially cities in Asia.
We literally opened three new stadiums in five years. Please do not comment without the correct info. Thanks @@vziowong
@@vziowong China friend, You can't compare LA to Asia because the whole Asia was only built 30-50 years ago. I live in LA and have also lived in China 7 years, also Korea and Japan. China has "nice" trains and subways but like I said, those were only built 5-10, if not 20-30 some years ago. However Chinese things are only surface nice, they don't last long. The high speed trains may have USB ports next the seats, but they don't work. Faucets don't always work nor come with soap. And the squatty hole WCs smell like a portapotty. Which country are you referring to exactly?
If you think LA's is old, don't bother going to NYC or east coast.
Once they went liberal democrat it was game over
You people should really do your homework before you start reporting. The opening ceremonies will be in Sofi Stadium not the Colosseum. The Colosseum will host track and field and closing ceremonies.
The opening ceremony will be in both stadiums that's what i heard on french tv
Homeless people seem to have more power than any politician😅

Before I watch this long video, been watching all the other videos . Here we go what Needs to be done ✅ Fix are Streets and Sidewalks from 3+years now. We Need More Resources to Improve Housing People are working That Have no Place To Go at Night and Get the Dangerous People with Issues and Mental Illness Help in separate communities lines. We Have to put up with this if I have to Say Something for those Working People Need a Place to Stay Hostel and Hotel are also Not Enough to Help Reducing Homeless cuz Not Getting Homeless Big encampments down Recovering Stolen Goods the Small Tent size a designated area will be Great. We need more Resources if Money going well option for Hotel are out of fund for voucher and not enough Housing available for anyone. Now arrested and citation ain’t going to help be Some where else like Burbank. I’m not saying anything on Side of Debate on Trump clear those don’t Have enough requirements to be able to work and Reduce the number of people can get those Need help then advantage of the system that’s pretty much why homelessness is increasing. But Harris, sorry I messed that name up. Just going to take wayy more to provide everyone to get into housing and Supporting Services which needed way more then everyone Thinks. PS to Newsom well they said working slowly so stop holding Funds and 100 Billion Dollar in to help the homeless and issues that be Addressed and Solve by 2028 no Vote For Me Then

City spokesman for Los Angeles has confirmed every single property tax will increase every single parking ticket will increase and every city service will increase as a way to garden money to host these stupid games at the expense of everyone’s pocketbook in Los Angeles
Did you expect any different? It’s just an acceleration of what’s been happening for quite a few years now
in other words the city govt is fine with the city being horribly dirty for the normal residents day to day
Yes.
The solution to the homeless crisis was given to us years ago in a movie, "Soylent Green." It will also solve any local food shortages. LOL!

We have FIFA coming first so I wonder how that will work out, but then again it’s at least spread out all over the US, Mexico, and Canada
4 years of preparation million dollars spent 2 weeks of competition
Well first off they need to find judges that won’t make errors
I be there for the Super Bowl 2027 in Sofi stadium 👏🏽
I hope that Olympics in LA will recycle metals like gold, silver and bronze from discarded cellphones and computers to make medals as carried out in Japan.
There aren’t even recycling cans outside stores or restaurants. Cali talks about being green but the reality is massive pollution and traffic
