The Year In Review
Growth, reconstruction marked 1999 in Sunnyvale
|
In Sunnyvale, 1999 was the Year of the Hammer. Looking back into the whirl of the past year, we can see, looming large, an image of the tool of tearing down and building up. In a town accustomed to fluctuation, 1999 saw major changes. Two of the city's few remaining farms closed. The 15-acre Olson Orchard, for so long a distinctive landmark, made way for a mix of housing and shopping. The seven-acre Stowell Ranch, almost next door to the Olson property, sold after more than 100 years of growing apricots and persimmons; a housing development will occupy the land. Only the Corn Palace, located off Lawrence Expressway, remains as a living relic of the city's working agricultural past.
