Tributary?

I thought that Ballona Creek ran to the ocean... I don't believe it is a tributary of the L.A. River. In fact, it is a historic course of the L.A. River, prior to a great shift during the flooding of 1825. Does someone actually have a source saying Ballona flows into the Los Angeles River? Mike Dillon 14:35, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

There would not be such a source. I know this because I live about a mile from the creek, and it most definitely does not flow into the L.A. River. I have fixed the article accordingly.--Slightlyslack 00:00, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

CULTURE "With year-round Mediterranean climate, the area attracts immigrants and visitors from all over the world making Ballona Creek Watershed a vibrant melting pot of culture."

Political correctness run amok with the insertion of a subjective opinion that is meaningless and worthless. Obbop mumbled this. Content I have placed within Wiki in the past that was far less rancid than what I am pointing out was quickly discarded. Anything to the rich of center upon the political spectrum is torn asunder in Wiki. 03:32, 29 April 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Obbop (talk • contribs)

Save for future more developed history page

In 1974, Los Angeles awarded a contract to replace “triple barrel box structures that slow the flow of channel water” with “reinforced concrete girder structures” over Hauser Boulevard, Burnside Avenue and Thurman Avenue, as well as landscaping “portions of the south side of the creek between Genessee and Cochran” and installing planters at each crossing.^[1]
