Echo Park Lake will reopen to the public at 3pm on May 26th, two months after he arranged for the closure of the park after about 200 homeless people took up residence there during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The reopening comes after LA Sanitation and Environment crews removed what they quantified as 35.7 tons of solid waste from the location. The park underwent $600,000 worth of cleaning and repairs, including replacing playground surfacing, upgrading restrooms and exterior lighting fixtures to LED, replacing fountains, improving light poles in the area, improving and painting the exterior of the lake's boathouse, improving the lake bridge, refurbishing the park's turf and improving irrigation.
Are you excited it will be reopening?!
