Opinion: The long decay of Van Nuys Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley
Back in the “American Graffiti” days of car and sock hops, Van Nuys Boulevard was where the cool kids congregated for burgers and Cokes, cruising and kissing.The trendy shops are long gone, replaced by bodegas selling beer and lottery tickets and bongs. “For Rent” signs in multiple languages have yet to produce any takers.
When the customers stopped shopping and the kids stopped cruising, stores started failing and landlords lost their shirts.Buildings started to decay. Our city councilors and mayors ignored the pleas for help, first in English, then in Spanish, now in every language.
