The Greenhouse Neighborhood —Beautiful condos in a park like setting, perfect for a change of pace
Taking its name from the Bell nursery greenhouses once occupying the lot, The Greenhouse is every bit as lush and vibrant as its namesake. Once marketed as a "serene clean, fresh and green" community selling units for just under $35,000, It is now one of the finest condominium developments in Palo Alto, selling condos for around $600,000 in 2006. Residents of The Greenhouse enjoy the convenience of manicured landscaping with shrubs and trees (even a par course) without having to worry about routine upkeep and lawn care.
