Braude Honored

After three decades as one of the city’s most avid environmentalists, retiring Los Angeles City Councilman Marvin Braude, above, was honored Friday by having a nature preserve named for him in the Santa Monica Mountains. Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky said the 1,900-acre preserve in Rustic and Sullivan canyons is the perfect monument for Braude because, like him, it remains as it was in the 1960s, when Braude took office.
