I'll concede that LA might lack a true urban identity since it can be very disjointed, although even this is debatable if you spend some time in the historic core, but I'm not sure I would say it's featureless. The mountains to the north and the ocean to the west make for a pretty dramatic cityscape, along with the Wilshire corridor[1] and downtown. LA also tends to look great at night, particularly from the air[2]. Hopefully the LA River revitalization goes according to plan and it can be better integrated with the neighborhoods it runs through[3].
