What Would You Build in Encino?

Encino-Tarzana, CA - Earlier this week, Encino-Tarzana Patch asked our Facebook readers what they would build or fix in town if they were given $1 million.

Readers from across the area responded with answers varying from new playgrounds, renovated high schools and improved hospitals.

Also early this week, U.S. News and World Report released its list of the Top 10 Children’s Hospitals Across the Country. The hospitals were ranked in terms of “clinical outcomes,” “efficient coordination of care,” and “care-related resources.”

The publication periodically releases lists regarding the best schools in the country as well as most livable cities. Many of the things that make a town or city ‘livable’ are resources and public spaces i.e. good schools, roads, parks, libraries, etc. Not surprisingly, these were many of the things readers said they would build or fix in their town if granted $1 million to do so.

Here’s what your neighbors said they would build in Encino-Tarzana:

• " I'd probably fix my friends backyard so I could sleep by the pool and stay cool."
• "I would demolish the old fire station on Balboa and Addison and make a parking lot. And if I had any money left over I would remodel the women's center. It would be a great place to rent out for events."
• "I would hire pressure washers for monthly sidewalk cleaning."
• "I would remodel the unattractive library."
• "I would clean up all of the weeds."
• "The sidewalks - in Van Nuys also."
