Project Information
The 51st Street Greenbelt Project will transform approximately 1 acre of undeveloped land into an outdoor park space. The site is currently an undeveloped parcel by the Los Angeles River, just north of Del Amo Boulevard. The park will construct pedestrian trails, a cycle track, fitness stations, play equipment/structures, landscaping with new trees and ground cover, seating, benches, bioswales, and ADA parking.
This project aims to:
- Enhance connectivity and access to green space along the 710 Freeway
- Provide a green space with walking trails, fitness stations, and childrens' play area for the neighborhood
