I got my yearly “water quality” report from the DWP a few days ago, which is now in newspaper size print. Okay, seems a bit excessive for this lil’ gripping page turner, but what do I know. But did they really need to use a picture of Echo Park and the missing lotus flowers, considering that “poor water quality” is one of the possible reasons for their disappearance? I would have gone with a different image, one that doesn’t make me look at my glass of water suspiciously. But what do I know.
After reading this week’s LA Weekly cover story on the Department of Parks and “Wrecks” it’s obvious that very few things in the city bureaucracy make sense.
Is that echo park lake? It looks like Lafayette to me…but I haven’t seen echo lake recently…
