Elysian Valley L.A. River Walk/Bike Path Opens This Saturday
November 30, 2010 § 4 Comments
The Elysian Valley segment of the Los Angeles River Bike Path is finally opening this Saturday! This project – a shared path for walking and bicycling - has been in the works and the courts since 1999, and “under construction” since June 2009. This Creek Freak will have to find other things to write about, no?
The grand opening is this Saturday December 4th 2011 from 10am to 2pm at Fletcher Drive and Crystal Street (warning for folks not familiar with the site - Ripple Street turns into Crystal – so the signal says Ripple.) The dedication ceremony is at 12noon. It’s billed as a walk/bike path grand opening and river festival! For information, see Council President Garcetti’s invitation flier – available in Spanish or English.


I noticed the new park, Confluence Plaza, opened officially today. Any thoughts?
Sounds great! I will find out what I can – some Confluence Park info was covered here earlier:
