Discover Van Nuys
Van Nuys is a neighborhood of the city of Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley. In 1909 the Suburban Homes Company, a syndicate led by Hobart Johnstone Whitley with Harry Chandler, H.G. Otis, M.H. Sherman and O.F. Brandt, bought 48,000 acres from the Los Angeles Farming and Milling Company for $2.5 million. Henry E. Huntington extended his Pacific Electric Railway through the valley to Owensmouth, now Canoga Park, and the syndicate laid out roads and the towns of Van Nuys, Marian, now Reseda, and Owensmouth.
More about Van Nuys
The town was founded in 1911 and named for one of its developers, Isaac Newton Van Nuys, a rancher and businessman of Dutch ancestry. It was the first new stop on the Pacific Electric's San Fernando line, which boosted early land sales, and in 1917 day trips were organized from as far as Alhambra for buyers of five-acre farms. Van Nuys was annexed by Los Angeles on May 22, 1915, after the Los Angeles Aqueduct was finished and could supply water for further growth. The Art Deco Valley Municipal Building, now Van Nuys City Hall, built in 1932, made Van Nuys the Valley's civic center and is a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument at the heart of a government center. In 1991 City Councilman Marvin Braude reassigned a 45-block area of Van Nuys, including Magnolia Woods, to Sherman Oaks, after residents showed petitions and old deeds saying the area had been part of Sherman Oaks until ZIP codes labeled it Van Nuys in the 1960s.
