Brief

Spencer Pratt, on The All‑In Podcast, promised to ban “SB‑79, prison‑like” high‑density buildings, revive Art Deco, and accelerate permitting (complaining projects now take “eight years”), claiming a famed architect with a 12‑person team has plans shown to Gov. Newsom and Rep. Bass; @mnolangray notes SB‑79 doesn’t take effect until July 1 and no SB‑79 projects exist, arguing Pratt lacks basic policy knowledge.

Why it matters

On The All‑In Podcast Spencer Pratt vowed to “empower architects,” reject “high‑density, SB‑79, prison‑like structures,” revive Art Deco, and speed up approvals “so it’s not going to take eight years,” saying a “most famous architect” with a 12‑person crew had designs shown to Gov. Gavin Newsom and Rep. Karen Bass and suggesting YIMBYs can have bike lanes “through the sky, through tunnels.”

Key details

  • SB‑79 does not take effect until July 1, and, as of the post, there has not been a single SB‑79 project built.
  • @mnolangray asserts that Pratt “lacks even the most basic knowledge” of the policies he would be tasked with implementing as mayor.

"No more of these high-density, SB-79, prison-like structures." There hasn't been a single SB 79 project built yet, as the law doesn't take effect until July 1. Pratt lacks even the most basic knowledge about the policies he would be tasked with implementing as mayor.

Spencer Pratt: I will empower architects and builders to make LA beautiful again.

“ We're going have LA so beautiful.

No more of these high-density, SB-79, prison-like structures. We need to bring Art Deco back.

All the architects that moved out of here because it was so hard to build, takes eight years, they're going to be moving back, because we're going to speed up building. It's not going to take eight years.

I talked to an architect today, one of the most famous architects in the world. He has a crew of 12 architects, they already did all these designs for these buildings and nobody listened to them. They met with Newsom, they met with Bass. Of course I'm like, “Let's do it, send me over the decks.”

And then the YIMBY people, they can have all their bike lanes going through the sky, through tunnels.

“We need LA to be the most beautiful architecture in the world.”
