Palo Alto's First Development East of 101

The Architectural Review Board of Palo Alto aims to ensure the city's first housing development east of Highway 101 is suitable for various residents, including children, the elderly, the disabled, and first-time homebuyers.

Michael Cohen of Strada Investment Group has proposed 145 for-sale townhomes on an 11-acre property at 2100 Geng Road, which would replace four office buildings and surface parking. The townhomes would have three or four bedrooms each, in 65 three-story buildings.

“It’s really, really important to have a mixed project here,”

said David Hirsch, suggesting that some townhomes be replaced with an apartment building to increase diversity. This would allow for one- or two-bedroom options, making the development more affordable for lower-income residents and smaller families.
