Letter: There are more development stories to be told
The recent Los Gatan article describing a scary chapter in Los Gatos history by Alan Feinberg jumped from the horrific 1960s plan to raise the Almond Grove District to the creation of the Almond Grove Historic District in 2008.
Unfortunately, this entirely omitted the several...
Story highlights overlooked individual (letter)
The recent article on Sahr Fania by Drew Penner (Los Gatan, Nov. 2-8) was wonderful!
