Last month while leaving a very rainy Dodgers game, the park sprinklers were at full blast at Elysian Park.

 

My apartment building in 90038 is leaking GALLONS of water every day from leaky pipes. I wonder should we start naming and shaming the various places around L.A. that is just throwing water away. GREAT post!

 

Hey! That last picture looks like Metro is providing a little mini wetlands for the pigeons!

 

Too bad seeing as they did a pretty good job using drought resistent landscaping for the Orange Line.

 

Someone needs to go turn off the water. Can we all say "WEST NILE VIRUS"
