Verdugo Wash
Introduction Confluence of Verdugo Wash (left) with the Los Angeles River at the Ventura Freeway bridge'''Verdugo Wash''' is a  tributary of the Los Angeles River, in the Glendale area of Los Angeles County, California.The stream begins just south of Interstate 210 in the Crescenta Valley. It flows southeast along the eastern edge of the Verdugo Mountains, then south through a pass between those mountains and the San Rafael Hills, and finally west to ultimately join the Los Angeles River just northeast of Griffith Park. Its entire path is located within the city of Glendale. With the exception of the free-flowing stream inside the Verdugo Wash Debris Basin Dam, Verdugo Wash is entirely encased in a concrete flood control channel.Verdugo Wash Visioning Project will create a 9.4-mile long linear park and nature trail for walking and cycling with access to neighborhoods that make up a large core of Glendale including its businesses, entertainment venues, city centers and services. Glendale's Verdugo Wash Visioning Project received $6 million in funding from Assembly member Laura Friedman in AB 179, the State Budget Act of 2022.
