What Would You Build in Hillsborough?

Hillsborough, NJ - Earlier this week, Hillsborough 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 Hillsborough:

• "Bowling alley-roller rink. Something for tweens/teens."
• "Acres of land for dirt bikes/ATV track and paintball."
• "A Great Adventure Amusement Park without cost or rides. Pure fun for the entire family to enjoy together in a more natural habitat. It would include pathways to walk the entire miles of acres through the fun, enjoyable and breathtaking family enjoyment park."
• "A bowling alley so teens have something safe and healthy to do."
• "Reopen Brikens Ice Cream."
• "Something fun for the youth. They have nothing to do here. Bowling alley, sports complex, roller rink, anything."
