Whittier Narrows Natural Area — Attraction in Whittier Narrows

Dear Google,

You have mixed up two entities. The Natural Area of Whittier Narrows is within the Army Corps land behind the Whittier Narrows Dam. The Discovery Center is only a idea by an unknown entity in the County Government (honestly - the community doesn't know who wants to build this) to build in a "park poor community". The Whittier Narrows Natural Area is not the Discovery Center, which you have placed together. The Discovery Center is still a project in a "box" by the Rivers and Mountains Conservancy, or RMC. The RMC, began as a State funded entity to fund and create parks for communities that were 'park poor', such as those in El Monte and South El Monte. The early RMC funded a joint project to look into the correlation between poor health/poverty/little or no available community parks. The RMC's Green Visions Plan was a joint project with USC, and had a public GPS Webtool where one could map community by community in the County of L. A.'s diverse population. One could see the economic standing + race +parks. The Green Vision Plan showed that parks DO increase the quality of health of a community, but NOT buildings. BUT, somehow the RMC got off course with their Discovery Center Project.The RMC suddenly wanted to turn a public open free Natural Park into 115 space parking lot with a many many times larger building (then what is there now). For several years the RMC and the various side groups made up of many of the same people For some reason, the RMC started "thinking" that buildings would be great for the community instead of creating more parks. Somehow, the RMC went from an governmental entity for Environmental Justice to an entity that wants to build a huge building - the antithesis of their original business plan. The RMC forgot what their first job was: to do no harm. The RM"Conservancy" has lost its way. Please do not put them together in the same box as the...

Great place for a family gathering. Many people go here just to walk around the lakes. There is an area set aside for RC boats which you may enjoy watching when they are there. Be aware that coyotes have been seen in the area so keep any small dogs close to you. There is a part of the park across the freeway that seems little used that would be great for a gathering and across from there on Rosemead is an area...
