great for auto carpet during the rains. Geez. I drove up there to see what you guys were talking about. How ridiculous! you cant even see the road in places. backroad is an accurate assessment.

I loved it during the rain, it was nice to drive on a dust free lot. Since it is compacted dirt, it's as if you're driving on wet unpaved backroad.

What was the lot like during last week's rain storms?

Great share, Stephen. Thanks so much.

I was thinking the same thing the first time I saw the parking lot after 2 weeks of opening. At least Expo plans to repave it. I found this contract come out for Repaving and it explains why it was in shambles:

Hmm maybe driving over to the covered lot on la cienega is a temporary solution

Is this the city's responsibility or is it Metro's?  Culver City is very responsive to it's community's needs - it may be that there is more to it than meets the eye.

I've actually been wondering about this myself (not the mud-level but the status of the lot). I seem to remember a brand spanking newly resurfaced lot just prior to the opening this year. In less than 3 months, the lot was already torn to shreds. What gives? Is the brother-in-law factor at play here?

Ahhh...first-world problems...
