Game changer: Angels move to Downtown?

Hopefully the Los Angeles native Angels will come home to Los Angeles where they belong much as the Los Angeles Chargers will be coming home after 51 years of being away.

The Alameda Specific Plan entitles a downtown stadium next to Union Station providing an easy opportunity to move the Angels to a location that not only has the best public transit in Southern California but also entitles alcohol service. A downtown station can help catalyze the north end of downtown, especially Chinatown and Olvera Street, which have not received the investment most other parts of downtown have received.
