Los Angeles Neighborhood Initiative

Reseda Village, in the West San Fernando Valley, became a LANI neighborhood in June 1997. This community possesses both an intimate, small-town feeling and an exciting, diverse commercial district. Although the 1994 Northridge earthquake damaged some store-fronts, it did not dampen the community's spirit. With LANI's help, the community is recreating Reseda's neighborhood main street and paving the way for economic turn around.
