Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Site is a 42-acre parcel of the former UPRR Taylor Yard rail yard (Figure 1). It sits on the east side of the Los Angeles River, and is bounded to the north by the Taylor Yard G1 Parcel (the Bowtie Parcel) currently owned by California State Parks, by the Sonia Sotomayor Academy of Arts and Sciences and a FedEx facility to the northeast, the Rio de Los Angeles State Park to the east, the Taylor Yard Transit Village to the southeast, and the Metrolink central maintenance facility to the south. UPRR and its predecessors were the property owners of the Site from approximately 1911 until the Site was purchased by the City of Los Angeles in March 2017. Railyard operations, including maintenance and fueling, began in the 1930s and continued through 2006, when the yard was permanently closed. Former facilities at the Site included a diesel shop, a machine shop, a roundhouse, a turntable, underground and above ground storage tanks (USTs and ASTs), a service track area, and miscellaneous buildings. A storm water and pollution control system and associated industrial wastewater treatment plant (IWTP) were in operation at the Site until decommissioning in 2011. Materials previously used or stored at the Site included diesel fuel, Bunker C fuel oil, journal box lubrication oil, gasoline, other types of oils, greases, acids, alkaline cleaning soaps, water treatment chemicals, paints and thinners, pesticides and herbicides, compressed gases, lead, cleaning solvents, and chlorinated solvents.
