Melrose and Larchmont…photo taken August 27th.

Work has begun on the Larchmont Boulevard median project…we thought you might enjoy these early photos as a sign of progress! The LA Bureau of Street Services is currently working on the two most northern medians.

The median at Melrose will eventually contain a monument that is similar to the one at the southern end of the Boulevard.

The photo above was taken on August 27th…and the two below were snapped Sunday, September 1st.  Lots of progress last week!

The median just south, between Melrose and Clinton, will be a planter.

Below you will find renderings of the project that were shared with the community at the groundbreaking ceremony on August 12th.

These views are part of the plan produced by the Engineering Division of the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Street Services.
