Making GRAND PARK Grander

GRAND PARK travels through the spine of civic Los Angeles creating an axis that connects two of the City's landmarks.  

At one end is LA's iconic City Hall.

And at the other is the Music Center and the Dept of Water and Power Building

Walking down the hill toward City Hall the direction is clear because of the size 

and architecture of the building.

But walking the park in the other direction, from City Hall up to the Music Center and the DWP Building, the walk's direction gets confusing because the visual focus is not as strong.

But going up hill getting a focus on the direction

of the walk is difficult.

 

GRAND PARK would be grander if there were a stronger visual link at the top of the hill.

IDEAS:  sculpture, lights, bigger flag poles, a "marker" on the DWP building or on the Music Center Plaza
