The Developer keeps taking away from us and building more down south
We are residents of Palo Alto and live close to Tierra Del Sol. We think it is a travesty that it closed. First the playhouse closed and now the restaurant. The Developer keeps taking away from us and building more down south. Since it is such a big building, why not make it like a Sawgrass and Ednas’ on the Green. I agree the golfers have no place to go not only from Tierra del sol but also Hacienda and De La Vista. What is worse is the Developer looking at closing both country clubs and making apartments and/or villas. Talk about a mess if they do that. But nothing surprises me when it comes to them. It’s all about the money.
