Midfair | Eichler Neighborhood Palo Alto

  • In the Palo Alto neighborhood of Midtown, Joseph Ecihler developed two subdivisions, one of them being the Midfair tract. This was a smaller, 25-home project located on Allen Court. Similar to the El Centro Garden project, the streets of Allen Court were designed in a cruciform shape, transforming the typical suburban cul-de-sac into a unique central space. This design was unique to Eichler as it gave the subdivision formal distinction from the masses and emphasized neighborhood design that promotes social cohesion. Fortunately for the Midfair homes, Eichler Homes wrote specific CC&Rs to guide future renovations and remodeling. Although a few non-Eichler remodels have occurred over the years, most of the homes in Midfair still uphold the sleek, contemporary Eichler aesthetic. As an older neighborhood, Midfair has watched Palo Alto and the greater Silicon Valley transform into the bay area we know today. Now, the Palo Alto area is one of the most sought-after places to live in the state. As a worldwide tech hub, Palo Alto is home to companies like HP, Tesla, Skype, and VMware with tech giants Apple, Google, and Facebook all in neighboring cities. The Palo Alto School District is currently ranked #1 in the state of California and there are a plethora of top-ranked private schools in and around the city. Downtown Palo Alto is a charming combination of small-town accessibility and urban ambience. Outdoor cafes, tiny coffee shops, bookstores, mom-and-pop specialty shops, national chains, art galleries, two movie theaters and numerous restaurants attract shoppers, eaters and entertainment-seekers of all ages.
