The 2008 Holiday House Tour took us to new territory — Palo Alto's Greenmeadow, Green Gables and Edgewood neighborhoods! Two of the featured properties were honored with PAST Preservation Awards in May 2008 as well as being located in the two newest National Trust listings for Palo Alto.

 

      An Edgewood Eichler

This was our first all-Eichler tour! We celebrated our National Register Eichler treasures by touring a house in Green Gables, two in the adjacent Edgewood neighborhood and four in Greenmeadow. A total of seven houses! The two Edgewood houses were especially interesting because one is exactly as built in 1956 and the other has just been remodeled.

• An award-winning Edgewood Eichler on Wildwood
  
  
• An orginal Edgewood Eichler with pretty bathrooms and original brass hardware
  
  
• Greenmeadow up-dated, but with a traditional feel
  
  
• Stunning bathrooms in a remodeled Green Gables Eichler with a tree house that wasn't included on the tour
  
  
• An exciting Greenmeadow Eichler
  
  
• A Greenmeadow Eichler with 21th century touches .
  
  
• A Greenmeadow Eichler that is a modern version of the original.

The 5th Annual Holiday House Tour was held on December 13, 1992 and featured five Professorville homes. The homes represented early 20th century styles favored by Stanford professors. Styles included were the Shingle Style, Colonial Revival, Georgian/Colonial Revival and California Mission revival. On a historical note, one was the home of the author of the Stanford Hymn.
