Inglewood Transit Connector Project to Displace Local Businesses
The Inglewood Transit Connector project, which has been in development for eight years, is set to displace more than a dozen businesses in Inglewood, California. The project involves demolishing a shopping center at Florence Avenue and Market Street to construct a parking structure and bus loop that will connect to the Metro K Line and the Stadium District. The city is using eminent domain to acquire the property, with a budget of $125 million allocated for the project and to assist the relocation of over 20 small businesses. Business owners, like Nina Wong of Silk Nails, express uncertainty about their future locations.
