No; the Arroyo Seco Parkway crosses the LA River northeast of Chavez Ravine/Elysian Park. The Arroyo Seco is a completely different waterway---a tributary, actually, to the LA River.

I went through here just over the weekend. It's still in the process of being demolished, seems it's taking a while. I saw that the roadway of the bridge is now dug up, but the bridge itself is still standing.

The communities along the Arroyo all have an interesting history, in my opinion.
