436 new homes in Mountain View

and 45 new homes in Palo Alto. Just in time ...

A total of 481 homes will take the place of the former Mayfield Mall and Hewlett-Packard office building on the 26-acre site, with 45 of them built on a five-acre Palo Alto portion if approved in January. A mix of four- and five-story stacked flats, three-story row homes and two-story single family homes will surround two parks totaling 3.47 acres. A $6 million pedestrian and bike tunnel under Central Expressway to the San Antonio train station is also part of the plan.
