Grassroots Park Proposal Revealed for the Silver Lake Reservoir
North of Griffith Park, construction is underway on a $230-million underground water storage facility. The 110-million-gallon Headworks reservoir, billed as the largest facility of its type in the Western United States, will consist of two large concrete tanks buried under public green space along the banks of the L.A. River. Nearly five miles south, questions loom over the future of the underground reservoir’s above-ground predecessors: the Silver Lake and Ivanhoe reservoirs.
