Frank Gehry Designs SELA Platform Parks and Cultural Center
Frank Gehry and his team found Southeast Los Angeles communities were among the most underserved along the L.A. River.

The multi-site proposal includes platform parks that use water from the river for recreation. Tensho Takemori of Gehry Partners offers an overview of a cultural center.
