165 University Avenue
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coordinates: 37°26′40″N 122°09′47″W / 37.4444°N 122.1631°W165 University Avenue is a small rented office building on University Avenue, the main commercial street in downtown Palo Alto, California. Located near Stanford University, the building has served as an incubator for several noted Silicon Valley companies, including Logitech, Google, PayPal, Danger, Inc, Milo.com, eye IO and Yummly. YouTube also provides this location as the example address when setting the location of an uploaded video. Until 2000, the ground floor was home to a Palo Alto institution, Chimaera Books & Music. Like many independent bookstores, its closure was due, in part, to competition from the dot com economy.
