More about the East Valley frame

Channel Characteristics

The channel in this frame is an entrenched rectangular box concrete channel, with a typical width of approximately 130 feet.

Landside Right-of-Way Characteristics

As the channel narrows in Frame 7, landside right-of-way (ROW) increases to 30-50 feet with a couple of large parcels that extend 200-450 feet into adjacent development. However, there is also approximately a mile on each bank (about 20% of the frame) where there is no landside right-of-way due to Warner Brothers and Universal Studios and the Lakeside Golf Course. The landside right-of-way parcels in this frame are both north and south facing, sometimes on slopes.

Notable Features

  • Dense residential context
  • Tujunga Wash confluence at river mile 37.5
  • Lakeside Golf Club from river mile 34.6 to 35.6 along the left bank, no ROW
  • Warner Bros Studios from approximately river mile 34 to 34.5 along the left bank, no ROW
  • Adjacent to Griffith Park from approximately river mile 32 to 34.5 along the right bank
  • Sennett Canyon and Creek at river mile 33.5 along the right bank
  • Burbank Channel confluence at river mile 32

Significant Considerations

  • Projects in this frame have the opportunity to enhance native habitat and connect to other important habitat corridors in the region, especially the riparian to upland connection along the right bank with Griffith Park.
  • Significant equestrian community in this area would utilize an expanded network of equestrian trails.
  • The sections of the frame with no ROW may require using the width of the channel or external land acquisition for projects of larger impact.
