De Anza College & Le Petit Trianon

Le Petit Trianon was built in 1892 for Charles A. Baldwin and his wife Ellen Hobart Baldwin at the centre of their wine estate; under the Beaulieu label their wines sold in New York, London and Central America. Harriet Pullman Carolan, daughter of George Pullman, bought it in 1909, and E. F. Euphrat in 1940. (National Park Service)

The college district planned to demolish the house in 1968 but kept it after protests. Listed on the National Register in 1972, it was moved twice and restored in 1982 as the California History Center, whose Stocklmeir Library holds the valley’s history. (Wikipedia)

De Anza College, named for Juan Bautista de Anza, opened in 1967. (City of Cupertino) Steve Jobs introduced the Macintosh at its Flint Center in January 1984; the theatre’s last event was on June 22, 2019. (Wikipedia)

The campus has the Euphrat Museum of Art, the Fujitsu Planetarium and the Cheeseman Environmental Study Area, a garden of about 400 California plants. On the first Saturday of every month students run a flea market of about 825 stalls. (Wikipedia)
