plethora of politicians and other members of the public to rededicate Marvin Braude Gateway Park at the top of Reseda Boulevard in Tarzana.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Honored guests included LA County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl, California Senator Fran Pavley, former LA City Councilwoman Cindi Miscikowski and Marvin Braude&#8217;s daughter Liza Braude-Glidden.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In the 60&#8217;s, there was a plan to build a Reseda to the Sea Freeway and a cross mountain freeway along Mulholland.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Speakers recounted Braude&#8217;s commitment to preventing this and his 1964 plan to have the City of LA save the Santa Monica Mountains by creating a park district and buying the undeveloped land.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>When he was rebuffed by the City Council, he ran for office, won and began his distinguished career as an advocate for the Santa Monica Mountains and other health and environmental issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The park, one of the main trailheads for mountain bicyclists and hikers coming from the San Fernando Valley was built 20 years ago when advocates and land mangers worked to stop plans to connect Reseda Boulevard and pave sections of Dirt Mulholland.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Braude Park has recently been refurbished by the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>ADA facilities have been improved, there&#8217;s a new bathroom and drinking fountain, and interpretive panels have been installed.<span
