Ben and Victory Green Street

Project Location

The Ben and Victory Green Street Project (Project) is located in Council District 2 in the North Hollywood area of Los Angeles. The Project is located in a residential neighborhood with drainage area approximately bounded by Vanowen St to the north, Laurel Canyon Blvd to the east, Hinds Ave to the west and Victory Blvd to the south.

Project Description

The Project captures stormwater and urban runoff from a 87-acre watershed and infiltrates the captured water into underground aquifers. During a normal rainy season, the project has the potential to capture more than 15 million gallons of water annually. The Project takes a distributed approach and installs green stormwater infrastructure at various locations in the drainage area. A rain garden, catch basins and drywells capture and infiltrate rainwater and urban runoff.

Project benefits:
  • Infiltrates stormwater into the San Fernando Valley Groundwater Basin
  • Reduces localized flooding
  • Removes pollutants such as trash, bacteria, metals, sediments and nutrients from stormwater runoff
  • Increases pedestrian and vehicular convenience and safety

Project Cost and Partners

The Project cost was $2.5 million with funding provided by LA Sanitation and Environment, Proposition O, Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and Los Angeles’ Community Redevelopment Excess Bond.
