The Los Angeles River, in its current form, is a concretized flood control measure built in the 1930's that moves wastewater from the city directly out to sea. Utilizing the principles of adaptive reuse, the project moves a portion of the LA River water and lifts it to the Metabolic Studio, where it will pass through a native wetland treatment and then will be distributed to local parks including the 52 acre adjacent LA State Historic Park. This work culminates a transformation that began in 2005 with Not A Cornfield.
