Marina del Rey belies its roots as a pro-growth County enterprise from the '50s/'60s. All was geared for housing and vehicular access (early plans for the 90 Fwy had it reaching the docks).
But it's possible to get 10,000 steps there (map from my book) with a little imagination!

Little known fact:
Star Route 90, the 3.3 mile Richard M. Nixon Fwy that starts nowhere, goes nowhere, ends nowhere and took 4 years to build was later renamed the Marina Fwy after the Watergate scandal forced Nixon to resign.
