What Would You Build in Danbury?

Danbury, CT - Earlier this week, Danbury 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 Danbury:

• "A permanent building for the Dorothy Day House/Food Pantry/Soup Kitchen near/closer to Main Street."
• "Add sidewalks everywhere so people can walk safely!"
• "Downtown to revitalize it to resemble more of yesteryear and model West Hartford's revitalization."
• "I'd bring back Tuxedos so we can have a music venue again!"
• "A nice place for all our homeless Veterans"
• "My Mom's house!"
• "Pave Lake Avenue extension"
• "Restore Tarrywile Castle"
