This is really sad to me. Not in the sense that I’m personally robbed of something, as I never actually used the paddle boats. More, I’m saddened that it’s another grimey spot of decay on what used to be the great areas of Los Angeles. We need to be preserving our historic attractions, not letting them close.

With the paddle boats gone and the lotus flowers no longer blooming, Echo Park lake will attract and less and less people meaning more transient and criminal element in the area and so on. Downward spiral and all. Boo.
