Really? I wonder why?

Maybe because drinking and laying in a hammock isn't desirable when it is only 35 degrees in the sun. I agree it would be nice if the lights could be a permanent installation but the cafe and venders are not needed all year round. Other things like the ice rink along the river open up during the winter time.

Tongva Park in Santa Monica is really pretty. Opened October, 2013: https://www.google.com/search?q=Tong...iw=360&bih=640

So, do they close it to pedestrian traffic?
