Cool. I wonder what that big Y-shaped concrete used to be.

The Y-shaped concrete thing is a pylon for a bridge that was probably never constructed.

Like so much of LA. I love the abandoned freeways outside of Seattle though.

never figured out what they were for, but constructed a rope ladder type of deal to get on top, my friends and i would drink on top of the thing when we were younger. the structure is actually cylindrical. has the best view! i think now, the area is patrolled by security.

It was a mount for a RADAR antenna at an old Nike missile integrated fire control site.
