And the city would develop aerial trams to
provide access from parking areas to the Griffith Observatory and other
elevated areas. At the same
time, access to nature is easy: In one day, a visitor can drive to the
very edge of a volcanic crater, hike through the heart of a mountain

sun on a deserted beach. All the
facilities would be connected by an aerial tram system running
throughout the park. |
