RIVER-EDGE IMPROVEMENTS
The Los Angeles River Revitalization Project vision for Taylor Yard is based on the following scenario: the G2 site was heavily contaminated from past rail uses. To make it functional, contaminated soils can be excavated from the area next to the River’s edge and used to create a series of mounded, sculptural landforms that support an upland, meadow-like landscape. The excavated area will be capped to prevent infiltration of contaminants into the groundwater, and a series of water quality treatment wetlands can be constructed on top of the cap, using imported soils that were stabilized to prevent erosion from the force of flood flows. This large site can be a very efficient regional water quality treatment facility, capturing runoff from very large box culverts that transport stormwater runoff that emerges from pipes in Glassell Park.
The purchase of the G2 parcel would provide enough land area to naturalize the east bank of the River, and to strengthen riparian habitat established within the channel itself. For a one-mile stretch, the concrete walls can be removed, and a more natural meander can be restored in the River’s alignment. A series of pools and riffles can provide habitat for desirable fish species. Because the site is viewed primarily as a preserve, only a limited number of boardwalks and pathways should be provided, allowing birdwatchers an opportunity to enjoy the area without disturbing shorebirds and migratory songbirds.

Hi, Steve. I was born there in September 1959, and DID find out who my birth mother was, around 1991 or 1992. But unfortunately, after a few phone calls and letters, she chose to reject me. It's brought a lot of pain into my life. But the way this worked, was that the lawyer who facilitated the adoption kept files on all the adoptions, and when my letter, searching for the birth mother, matched with my half-brother seeking me (he is my birth mother's son from a marriage that came about a few years after my birth -- he's about 6 months younger than me) -- that created a "match" and so my half-brother and I began communicating. I also communicated with my half-sister and my birth mother as well. I met my half-brother and he stayed at my house almost a week. But the relationship with my birth mother quickly went south. I never quite understood why. I hope you have better luck than I do.

I meant to add that I believe the Pulp Fiction scenes were on the 4th (top) floor, most likely in the northwest corner apartment. I had a friend who'd lived in that apartment.

I lived there in the late 80's. The building was damaged in the '87 quake but nothing was done. Earthquake proofing happened after carbon monoxide killed two people in separate incidents. Corner apartments were one-bedroom, all the rest were singles. On the plus side, great closets and storage!
