165 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, and Danger, Inc. 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 dotcom economy.
As of July 2008, the location is home to Playlist.com, a branch of EdwardJones, a branch of New Energy Finance, Penrhyn Cafe, and a T-Mobile store. On 4 October 2008, the Loving Hut vegan restaurant opened at this address.[1]
