Stanford is off to Florida where they will face off against Virgina Tech in the Orange Bowl in Miami on Janaury 3, 2011. The Stanford football team has come a long way under the guidance of head coach, Jim Harbaugh, who inherited a program that posted a 1 -11 season prior to his hiring and now have an impressive 11-1 season, now at #4 in the BCS national ranking. This Orange Bowl should be an excellent game; the two teams have never played and Virginia Tech dominated the Atlantic Coast division, beating traditional powerhouse teams such as Miami and Florida State.

In a recent mercurynews.com article, Coach Harbaugh discussed the Orange Bowl challenge. “It’s a great bowl, and it’s a great reward for our players,” said coach Jim Harbaugh. “Now it’s known where we’re going, and our intent is to win it.”

Good Luck, Stanford. We will be rooting for you!

In other local athletic news and not to be outdone by the Stanford Football program, Palo Alto’s High girls’ volleyball team ended an incredible season, posting many firsts for its volleyball program - The Vikings won the SCVAL De Anza Division title, captured their first-ever Central Coast Section Division I crown, won their first Northern California championship and qualified for an appearance in the state finals for the first time. On Saturday the Vikings rallied for a thrilling five-set victory over Long Beach Poly in the CIF Division I state finals at the San Jose State Event Center. Quite an accomplishment and an incredible ending to an amazing season. Congratulations Vikings! A local paloaltoonline.com article describing this amazing athletic feat can be found here.

Silicon Valley Growing Fast

Posted in Palo Alto

November 9th, 2010 by Altaire Townhomes

According to statistics presented at a recent real estate conference sponsored by Collier International, the economic health of the region is improving. Silicon Valley is experiencing strong economic recovery that should continue in the next several years, bolstered by employment growth at social-media companies and regional corporate powerhouses, such as Intel.

The South Bay is in the top tier of regions leading in the percentage change of its jobs base, faster than the metropolitan areas of Phoenix, New York, Miami, Seattle and a slew of other cities.

According to a recent article in The Registry, The Bay Are Real Estate Journal -

‘Silicon Valley, which created nearly 10,000 jobs in the first three quarters, adding 1.1 percent to its employment base, is the strongest geography in Northern California and one of the strongest in the nation, said Ken Rosen, chairman of Berkeley-based Rosen Consulting Group and Rosen Real Estate Securities.’

Palo Alto is a great place to live. We have it all – wonderful people, beautiful weather and a strong vocational infrastructure which brings the best and brightest to our region. Just another reason that Altaire loves to call Palo Alto home.

Palo Alto Art Center Fall 2010 Exhibits

Posted in Palo Alto

October 18th, 2010 by admin

For Fall 2010, the Palo Alto Art Center will be displaying three exciting exhibits, running from Sept. 25 through Dec. 12, 2010, for all to enjoy.

So what can you expect to see? Their website gives an excellent summary of the three compelling exhibits :

In Focus: Collecting Photography showcases the unique character of, and stories behind, four diverse photography collections formed by art professionals who live in the Bay Area. Light from the Underground is a photographic essay by Colette Campbell-Jones based on communal memories collected from miners and families in South Wales. Paintings from Haiti presents selections from the collection of Dr. Ralph S. Greco. Many of the paintings make palpable the invisible powers of belief that have sustained a culture through centuries of adversity.

As covered in an earlier post, the Art Center is scheduled to undergo a significant remodel and renovation. In order to facilitate this transformation, the Palo Alto Art Center Foundation is kicking off a community-wide “Where Art Transforms” capital campaign to raise the funds necessary to renovate the Art Center. This project recently received two generous gifts from Ann Bowers and the Packard Foundation and is very close to its funding requirements .

To learn more about the campaign and how you can help, click here or watch their video below.

Altaire loves all that Palo Alto has to offer and we are very excited to see the proposed renovations to the Palo Alto Art Center become a reality.

Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival

Posted in Events

October 15th, 2010 by admin

When you think of Fall what comes to mind? Cooler weather, the leaves changing color and pumpkins…..lots of pumpkins.

For those of you who would like to celebrate the Fall season in style, look no further than the quaint coastal community of Half Moon Bay. The 40th Annual Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival takes place this weekend, October 16 & 17 from 9am – 5pm.

The festival has become quite an event, with a loyal following. Here is a little background (from the official festival site) describing how the small coastal community became synonymous with pumpkins in all shapes and sizes.

The pumpkin boom can be traced back to growers in the area who began to plant pumpkins in the 1930′s. In the early 30’s, teenager John Arata and his brother Clarence began planting pumpkin seeds to feed the family’s hogs. One day, they were hauling some of their pumpkins along Highway One back to the farm when a passing motorist stopped and asked if he could buy a few. The Arata’s sold the pumpkins for a quarter and a booming pumpkin-picking business and tourist attraction was born.

And the tradition continues on today as more than 3,000 tons of pumpkins are grown each year by 15 or so commercial growers in the Half Moon Bay area. They ship pumpkins all over the United States and sell to many of the large retailers in the Bay Area.
Although the focus is on pumpkins, there is something for everyone at the festival…..parades, costume contests, family activities and great food and drink await you as well.

One more reason Altaire loves life on the peninsula. Have fun!
