Some parts of Palo Alto don't even give permits for TWO story houses (to preserve the privacy and character of the surrounding one-story houses, particularly those Eichlers with the entire rear wall of the house being made of glass).

Expecting a high-rise development on this property is fanciful. Expect 2,000 square-foot townhouses, selling for $2 million. That's what they built across the street.

I know I'm not being realistic. But if CA wasn't so anti-growth that's what would happen.
