This is originally a Tongva India site that now is surrounded by a highschool. The Tongva Indians continue to prevent LA from plugging it up. Which is insane, as during an intense earthquake, this might be the only water available for weeks to come for the entire metropolis.
This is the campus of the University Highschool. There is a natural pool to collect from that hosts crawfish and other signs of healthy water life next to the Kuruvungna Springs Cultural Center and Museum on the property. And the actual spring source is at the head of the field. The site is open to the public the first Saturday of every month. www.gabrielinosprings.com
