Vandals Leave Mark on LA's Historic-Cultural Monuments

The 7th Street Bridge, which crosses the Los Angeles River, stands marred by graffiti on February 21, 2008 in Los Angeles, California. Eleven bridges that span the river were declared Historic-Cultural Monuments by the Los Angeles City Council on January 30 bringing the total number of LA River brides to receive the designation to fourteen. The bridges, built between 1909 and 1944, are regularly seen in film and television shows such as the first two "Terminator" movies, "Grease" and "Transformers", which made use of 6th Street Bridge, and the first three seasons of the television series "24" which used both the 6th and 4th Street bridges.
