Proving even the smallest city projects are deserving of a party, a ground-breaking ceremony was held this morning for the Vermont Triangle park, the small patch of cement aka median island at Vermont and Hollywood undergoing a transformation. When finished by October, the $800,000 project will see improvements like landscaping, benches, and trash bins. Both Council President Eric Garcetti and Councilmember Tom LaBonge were on hand to talk up the project in front of a crowd of about 15-20 people. In his remarks, Garcetti called the project an instance of "urban acupuncture," i.e., small efforts made in the city. Yes, more urban acupuncture, please.
Yes, let's look at the financials of this project.>>>
