University Avenue, Palo Alto

Palo Alto is nestled in the liberal Bay Area, halfway down the peninsula between San Francisco and San Jose. Location, politics and economics make Palo Alto a prosperous and thriving city. It is known as an open-minded college town because of its close proximity to Stanford University as well as a cosmopolitan, high-tech center from which radiates Silicon Valley. It is the breeding ground and home to many startups. Palo Alto offers small town ambiance and big city connections.

Cogswell Plaza is getting a face lift. Located on Lytton Ave (one block from University Ave) between Ramona and Bryant streets.
