What Would You Build in Wall?

Wall, NJ - Earlier this week, Wall 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 Wall:

• "ONE outdoor, inline roller rink amongst all the soccer and football fields for all the WALL kids who breathe, eat and sleep hockey."
• "I'd relocate that stinking youth center!! It has NO business on a dead end residential street!"
• "I would buy a home instead of renting, and it would be a modest home. Pay off my daughter's college and take a well needed vacation."
• "I would buy the old furniture store that sits abandon, and turn it into a play faculty for kids part for jumping with balls: second old arcade style games for older children, indoor basketball, and a coffee shop where parents can sit while children have play time. In the winter, the area is limited on indoor entertainment for kids. I think it would be a great idea for them to play and meet friends and safe way to spend time."
