Original 1926 Van Nuys library for sale - News Article Locations on Waymarking.com

"Looking for a good deal on a 1926 Spanish Colonial Revival-style building, complete with original tile roof and fireplace, in a prime Van Nuys location?

Get out your checkbook.

With a minimum bid of $950,000, you can buy the original Van Nuys branch library.

The one-story masonry building, at 14553 Sylvan St., has been unused and surrounded by chain-link fencing since 2005. The city now plans to auction off the historic building to raise money to build a larger library in the area.

“The building will get a new use that is more suitable to this facility and the community will get a brand new library,” said library spokesman Peter Persic." (visit link)
