Backyard Cabin with Natural Pond in Midtown Palo Alto: I own a single-family residence on a cul-de-sac. Midtown, R-1 zoning, El Carmelo Elementary attendance area. Good cul-de-sac geometry means a clean rear-yard detached ADU placement — and Palo Alto's ADU rules cap detached ADUs at 1 story / 17 ft, so the demo can show how Terraformal handles that constraint elegantly.
