Palo Altos New Zoning Rules Pave Way for 85-Foot Apartment Building: A Developers Dream and a Communitys Adjustment

In a significant shift, Palo Alto city leaders have approved an 85-foot apartment building in the Ventura neighborhood, thanks to new zoning rules for the El Camino Real area. The developer, Vittoria, is constructing 184 units, with 23 at below-market rates, replacing older apartments and a small shopping area. The project, which might not have passed a few years ago, is a result of state laws expediting housing project approvals and bypassing environmental reviews. While city officials and Vittoria praise the collaborative approach, residents may need time to adjust to the new skyline along El Camino Real.
