Loyola Corners, Los Altos
Dark brown wooden signs posted along Foothill Expressway point to Historic Loyola Corners. The area may feel old and established, but the corners are not particularly well defined, because the local shops and businesses spread out over several streets that then spill into residential pockets sandwiched between parks and offices, or lined by busy roads such as Fremont and Miramonte avenues.
Before Foothill Expressway was built in 1964, the railroad tracks ran there, and the train stopped in Loyola Corners.
Businesses may have changed over the years, but there is still a healthy range of services including a gas station, liquor store, kids' art classes and photo developing.
