The Los Angeles Times reports that the curved panels of polished steel adorning the Walt Disney Concert Hall dangerously reflect and magnify beams of sunlight -- roasting the sidewalk to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, enough to melt plastic and cause serious sunburn to people standing on the street. (Architect Frank Gehry, who designed the $274-million building, has agreed to break out the sandpaper.)
