About Van Nuys
Van Nuys is a neighborhood located at the heart of the San Fernando Valley region in Los Angeles County, California.
Founded in 1911, the town was named after Isaac Newton Van Nuys, a wealthy American businessman and rancher who owned the southern part of San Fernando Valley. He was hailed as the honorary godfather of Van Nuys. The fledgling town was only annexed after the conclusion of the Los Angeles Aqueduct project, which supplied its water sustenance, in 1915.
Geographically speaking, Van Nuys is surrounded by other Los Angeles County communities and bodies of water. From its north, it has North Hills, Panorama City on its northeast, Valley Glen on its east, Sherman Oaks on its south, Sepulveda Basin on its southwest side, and Lake Balboa on its west.
Based in Studio City, Orchid Republic offers flower delivery to Van Nuys.

The Busch Gardens in Van Nuys
Van Nuys used to be the California address of the now defunct Busch Gardens, an American theme park by SeaWorld Entertainment, which can be found in other parts of the United States, including Florida and Texas.
The story is that Adolphus Busch, one of the founders of the Missouri-native brewery, Anheuser-Busch, turned an extensive, piece of land, including Van Nuys, which used to be a cabbage patch, spanning 17 acre and turned it into an amusement park that offers overflowing beer for free.
It featured a lovely combination of tropical beer garden and bird sanctuary. The Van Nuys park, which would’ve been such a hit today, unfortunately, shut down in the mid70s after visitors started dwindling down.
