North East Trees, in partnership with the City of Los Angeles Recreation
and Parks Department and the Mountains Recreation and Conservation
Authority, received funding from the 1992 Los Angeles County Safe
Neighborhood Parks Proposition to construct the Los Feliz Riverwalk
Project from Chevy Chase Drive to the Sunnynook Drive footbridge in
Los Feliz. The project is a Los Angeles River Master Plan demonstration
project and was completed in September 1999. Improvements include walking
trails, native landscaping, picnic areas, river rock walls, and Anza
Trail signage. The project also involves the installation of a steel
gate designed and fabricated by local artist Michael Amescua at Los Feliz
Boulevard and the River.
