Cortina at Villa Lago
at the Promontory
Espirit at Dublin Station
Windsong at Madeira East
One of the things I love about the area that I live and work in is the names of our neighborhoods. Places like Westbrae, Thousand Oaks and Rockridge have these names because they actually mean something (i.e Westbrae is in West Berkeley, Rockridge for actual outcroppings of rock, Thousand Oaks really is oak-studded). Compare this to such places as “El Sol at Palmilla”, or “Villa Lago at the Promontory”, or “Esprit at Dublin Station”, and “Windsong at Madeira East.” Gag me! When asked where you live, how could anyone answer these places with a straight face?
