Northeast L.A. Riverfront

The NELA Riverfront District Vision and Economic Development Plan was the result of community engagement activities that were aimed at celebrating Northeast Los Angeles’ riverfront neighborhoods: Atwater Village, Cypress Park, Elysian Valley, Glassell Park and Lincoln Heights. From 2013 to 2014, the Plan documented ideas from the community with the goal of improving the NELA Riverfront area and giving recommendations to deliver those improvements to the L.A. River and its surrounding Northeast Los Angeles riverfront neighborhoods. Download the Vision Plan (93.6 MB)
