New park in South Pas

A new park is opening in South Pasadena. Will you visit it?

SOUTH PASADENA — By mid-April, a small section of Garfield Park will have trimmed bottleneck trees, a sitting wall, and stones etched with the names of 15 young people who have died in the city since the 1970s.

Stones with the names of the deceased will be added throughout the garden. Kramer said she is receiving phone calls from people with new information.

While the cost of building the garden has doubled to $30,000 from the initial $15,000 estimate due to soaring construction costs, Kramer said the strong show of community support - from money to donated materials and labor - surprised her.
