Los Angeles County unveiled its draft update to the L.A. River master plan, the document intended to guide the development of new parks and water quality projects along the 51-mile corridor, while also accounting for potential displacement and equity issues in neighboring communities. — Urbanize Los Angeles
The new document was formed with input from thousands of residents, with online materials receiving nearly one million impressions, Urbanize LA reports. Frank Gehry is leading the masterplan effort in collaboration with Philadelphia-based landscape architecture firm OLIN.
The masterplan focuses heavily on open space, transportation, and water quality, in addition to "elevated platform parks" intended to cover the existing concrete channel in lieu of removing it. The draft plan is available for review and public comment through March 14 at LARiverMasterPlan.org.

This is cool, but I feel like LA has so many other issues to tackle.
