Dear Friends of the Monument:
I know we are all grieving for the destruction of major parts of our beloved Los Angeles. I hope you are safe and getting through this difficult period without loss or major disruption. It is heartening to see how Angelenos are supporting those who lost their homes and businesses. It reminds me how we banded together during the height of the AIDS crisis to support and care for each other.
On a happier note, there has been lots of progress in the construction of the Monument as you’ll see below:
MONUMENT CONSTRUCTION PROCESS UPDATE
Concrete was poured on many areas of the site: around where the Traces will be installed, for the bench seating and pedestals, and for the protest podium facing San Vicente Blvd. See photos below. Concrete for the donor wall and the curb along San Vicente Blvd. will be poured next.
