ERNIE'S WALK

Ernie's Walk is a quarter mile long section along the north bank of the Los Angeles River where the late Ernie La Mere, a local resident, planted and maintained landscaping for the benefit of the community. According to local residents, Mr. La Mere spent countless hours each day at the trail to take care of the numerous plants, trees, and shrubbery. Mr. La Mere participated in Public Works' Adopt-a-Riverbank Program, which recognized him as the official caretaker of Ernie's Walk. The site is still heavily used by local residents and neighbors.
