El Pueblo Father Serra Park Wrong Project Site
The City of Los Angeles is in the process of building a concrete wall as part of a bigger project at Father Serra Park in El Pueblo without complying with applicable laws. The City has removed trees at the site. The City excavated a trench that may have uncovered and destroyed cultural artifacts in the area down by Union Station. This area has been documented to be rich in an unprecedented number of cultural resources, features and objects of Old Chinatown. The City has had no archeologist on hand to protect artifacts during construction. The City has erected a curved concrete wall about five feet high by 20 feet long, paved the base of the wall, and replanted the excavated area. The City apparently plans to continue to work on the project until at least December 5, 2009, when a press conference has been called. The wall would list the names of 3,499 Medal of Honor recipients who have no material ties to El Pueblo and the birthplace of Los Angeles as part of concrete, stone, brick and metal project including a two story high pyramid. The City and the project proponent do not have the funds to complete the $1.4 million project or to maintain the project if it is completed.
