Capital Accumulation with La Metro's Gold Line Atlantic Station and Future Extensions by Scott Ireland Lopez PDF Summary

Book Description: The Gold Line is the most eastward light rail line of the LA Metro system. The Eastside Transit Corridor Phase II extension pushes the Gold Line further east offering rail services to an area that has been without for many years. Using content analysis, time series image analysis, participant observation, and geographic information systems, I found that capital accumulation takes place along the Gold Line Atlantic Station in East Los Angeles and beyond. This phenomenon is revealed through the nearby presence of notable landmarks and businesses that enable capital accumulation through aesthetics and consumerism. A high renter presence, gradual increases in household incomes and property values also proved this hypothesis. The proposed ending stations of the Gold Line extension display similar findings revealing the effort to boost capital accumulation as LA Metro expands the Gold Line east. The expansion east would bring the consequences of capital accumulation. Low-income neighborhoods close to the proposed stations would be the most affected and must speak for a more comprehensive planning that better considers financial vulnerabilities.
