That's not MacArthur Park in the video either. I always thought he was singing about the park on Wilshire near downtown L.A.
Actually, he is. MacArthur Park (formerly Westlake Park) in Los Angeles is where the big homo lumberjack was arrested by Stacy Keach in the film THE CHOIR BOYS and that's the park Jimmy Webb was writing about in the song by the same name.
It's in Rampart. Real nasty area now surrounded by elegant old apartment buildings from the 1930s to 1960s now gone into ruin. Howard Hughes lived in one of the big hotels on the west side. The office where the woman and janitor got shot in Pulp Fiction looks out over the park. The place to go if you want to score some crack or a fake ID or fake insurance certificate - or just get shot by a Salvadorian gang.

Rampart is all you had to say.
Didn't the city close that LAPD narcotics and street gang suppression unit down because the cops were murdering dealers and witnesses?
Once the cops get used to a better life they get kinda rammy, don't they?
