The Mulholland Dam was principally designed by, and named after the father of the modern Los Angeles water system, William Mulholland. Mr. Mulholland's career came to an end with the St. Francis Dam collapse that killed over 600 people as 12.4 billion gallons of water flowed down the valley to the sea.
