in this project, i wanted to explore the usage of the los angeles river in different locations, to see how the river is treated and actually being utilized by angelenos today, and the relationship between the residents in the area and the river itself. the different sites of the river that i ended up exploring are the glendale narrows area, the silverlake and frogtown area, the griffith area, and eventually, the sepulveda dam. it was one thing to read about the issues surrounding the river, but i really wanted to experience the river first-hand and explore the overlooked concrete gutter that is the los angeles river.
