Via the City Project blog: "Almost four years after Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa called a press conference surrounded by neighborhood children to celebrate the ground breaking for the Ascot Hills Park in East L.A., the site remains locked up and closed to the public. A broken sign trumpeting the new park lay propped up against the fancy new gate, a symbol of the broken promise of a park." The ground-breaking for the 140 acre park in Ascot Hills in East Los Angeles was held way back in 2005. [City Project]
