born and raised here in echo park i would say echo park is my favorite place to be! everyone is so nice here more new people have moved in but theres still those same people they are some shootings here but you know i think its worth it i want to die here i wouldnt want to go anywhere else in the world other than ECHO PARK!
Nó tuyệt vời,phong cảnh hòa quyện giữa hiện đai(các tòa nhà cao tầng)và tự nhiên(cây xanh,hồ).Có lẽ đây là nơi rất tuyệt để đi khi đến LA

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/17/07
ITS A NICE PLACE DURING THE DAY TIME BUT ONE NIGHT MY FRIEND AND HIS BUDDYS WERE WALKING TO THE ECHO PARK LAKE AND GOT INTO THE MIDDLE OF A GANG CROSSFIRE AND GOT SHOT IN THE CHEST. HE SURVIVED THANK GOD! BUT HE SUFFERED..I WOULD STAY INSIDE AFTER DARK IF I LIVED THERE

Your little getaway!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/06/07
I LOVE ECHO PARK. However, I am not a visitor -- I used to live around the Echo Park area. I have never gotten sick of it though. Every evening during the summer, I would run around the lake and there are always vendors selling ice cream around. It's a cute place to go to with a lover. It can be a miniature getaway.
Going around July is fun ...

echo park brings nothing but great memorys, as a child i can remember fishing for blue gills off the bridge that connect the island were i would spend hours exploring,and walking from one end of the park to the other with my kid brother and seeing the beautiful downtown skyline at a distance, i will always have fond memorys of echo park
This was a nice place to just sit back and relax for the afternoon. It's a small park, but it has an amazing downtown LA backdrop. You couldn't get it anywhere else!
Real good place to go. Me and my wife went this place and we did boating. It was nice place. but I really feel that this place really needs cleaning. And should ban smoking in this place.

early run in the park
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/04/07
It's a great place to run. Th edistance round the lake is pretty much the same as a standard track so you can really gauge your distance well. There is public water and restrooms available..however these are shared by the homeless of downtown so it's up to you.They have cleaned the park a lot recently and keep the gardens clean and groomed.. I recommend daytime only as the area still has a little way to go..
