My neighborhood (Monta Loma) was once an Ohlone Indian village, with a 200m burial mound bulldozed in the 1950s to clear space for a school and more tract homes. One corner of the neighborhood is home to a closed HP office building... our neigborhood association is (internally) debating the merits of a lawsuit to stop a zoning change to high-density residential. See http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/breaking_news/9140608.htm?1c

... With homes costing about $600,000, it's also one of few affordable single-family residential neighborhoods left in the city, McBain said.

*snerk* only in Silicon Valley would that denote "affordable"... for unrenovated 1100 sqft 1950s homes.
