Quarry Clasp Park Development Project - Watershed Conservation ...

EMERALD NECKLACE / Phase 1 Projects 03/14/2013
The context for the project site is a combination of land-uses. Adjacent to the site are industrial
properties with single family homes across the local streets. The southern edge of the Hanson
Quarry extends from Peck Road to the San Gabriel River.
The potential for the development of both a Class I bicycle path and an equestrian trail in the
Quarry area is dependent on private land owner agreements with the Los Angeles County
agencies and/or land acquisition.
A horse crossing sign at the intersection of Durfee Ave. and Clark St., indicates an existing
passage between two properties to the edge of the quarry. Most of Clark St., east of Durfee Ave.
was vacated when residential parcels were reassembled for industrial use; the passage is the
remaining remnant of the street right-of-way.
