Paved paradise (and you guessed it)
The football field and track at L.A. City College on Vermont Avenue (the original home of UCLA) is now a parking lot. But the grandstand remains.

There hasn't been a football team at LACC in years. There is no men's track and field team. While they still field a women's track and field team, it's sparse.
The real story here isn't the paving of the field -- it's the total demise of intercollegiate athletics at the community college level in Los Angeles.
