For this issue, the news staff wanted to examine what the city is like today in light of what has happened over the past four de- cades. We started by reaching out to residents on four blocks in Palo Alto, from north to south: Poe Street, Churchill Avenue, Greer Road and El Cerrito Road. We asked them to tell us what living in the city is like for them and what fills their day-to-day lives. We also asked them to share their observations about the changes happening in their neighbor- hoods and the city.
