Wow. Was that typed with one hand on your phone as you ran to a cab? Take a moment to use actual words...

Yes, the climbing is by the reservoir.

The directions seem pretty good. From the south you will park in a dirt/gravel lot where the road ends (you will pas a baseball field on the left shortly before it). Park there and cross the river (there is a pair of cables to walk above it, or, as of last weekend a tree down you could walk across). Follow the abandoned road until it runs out at the river. This is after maybe 10 minutes of walking. Down to the right is another set of cables to cross. Head left on the other side until a trail branches off right (where the red climbing sign noted in the directions is). Head right at the concrete buildings, then left.

From the South, you will be at the other end of the abandoned road. It is a little longer of a walk, but there are no river crossings. You'll eventually come to the red sign and use the directions above.

It isn't hard to find.
